INDIANANPOLIS - Hoosier voters will now have a convenient, secure way to contact the Indiana Secretary of State’s Office with election questions or concerns.

The election text hotline is simple to use. Just text the letters ‘IN’ to the number 45995. A secure link will be returned where Hoosiers can submit their question or concern directly to the Secretary of State’s Office. Election staff will promptly receive and review questions or concerns and respond directly to the voter.

Got Info? Need Info? We Got You!  Just Text Us! 

Hoosiers can text ‘IN’ to 45995 for a wide variety of reasons.  A few examples include:

  • Reporting something suspicious at a polling site
  • Information about voting locations and hours
  • Questions about election security

“When I took office, I made a promise to be efficient and this is one of the ways I’m following through on that promise. This is another tool for voters and county clerks to utilize.  The goal of our texting initiative is place resources at Hoosiers’ fingertips.  I encourage any voter with a question or concern to text us. When you use this method, you can be confident your information is going to the right place,” said Secretary Diego Morales.

Hoosiers can always check their voting status, find polling locations, and see a sample ballot at the IndianaVoters.com website. As a reminder, Election Day is Tuesday, November 7th.  Make sure you get out and vote!

The service is free, however individual user’s text messaging and data rates may apply. You can see a video message here from Secretary Morales and it’s also posted on his official social media platforms. As a reminder, be safe, don’t text and drive.
