Caucus Information for Corydon Town Council District 1 Vacancy

The Harrison County Republican Central Committee will caucus on Saturday, December 14, at 10:00 a.m. at the Harrison County Government Center in Corydon for the purposes of filling the vacancy for District 1 on the Corydon Town Council created by the resignation of Hope Schneider, who has resigned to have more time to care for her aging parents.

Only precinct committee members from the Town of Corydon may vote in this caucus. Precinct vice committee members may vote as proxies for their absent precinct committee member.

Voting will be by private ballot and will continue until one candidate has reached a majority of the precinct committee members and proxies that are present.

Indiana law empowers the county chairman to break a tie if one exists.

Once the caucus has selected who will fill the vacancy, the county chairman will certify the result to the Circuit Court Clerk.

Individuals interested in seeking the vacancy must file a written declaration of candidacy (CEB-5 form) with Harrison County Republican Party Chairman Scott Fluhr no later than 72 hours before the caucus, in this case by Friday, December 12 at 7:00 p.m. Individuals interested in seeking the District 1 Corydon Town Council position can contact him via email address on the right. The necessary forms are available from the Circuit Court Clerk's office or via the aforementioned email address.

Individuals interested in seeking the vacancy must also reside within District 1, the boundaries of which are shown below in light blue:

Tuesday, voters in Harrison County went to the polls and made history.

A higher proportion of votes were cast for Republicans in an election than ever before in county history. Republicans won every single race, and this was the fifth consecutive election in Harrison County in which the Republicans won every county office.

This election saw many historic results in Harrison County. The first woman ever (Annissa Kellum-Reas) has been elected as county commissioner. More votes were cast for the Republican state representative candidate for our area (Karen Engleman) than ever before. The county vote totals for the Republican candidates for President (Donald Trump), Senate (Jim Banks), Attorney General (Todd Rokita), Congress (Erin Houchin), Commissioner (Nelson Stepro), Coroner (Jeremy McKim), Council (Sherry Brown), and Recorder (Sandy Stepro) were record highs for those offices. No Republican candidate received less than 72% of the vote, which was also a record.

The tireless efforts of countless individuals brought us to this victory. It was made possible by hard work and dedication by a lot of great people: citizens, volunteers, candidates, and their family and friends.

Most of all, it came from the votes of the people of Harrison County. It came from people who took the time to request and mail in a ballot. It came from people who stood in line for sometimes over two hours to vote early at the courthouse in Corydon. It came from people who voted on Election Day.

Much was made nationally in this campaign season about the health of American democracy. In Harrison County, we know from this year’s result that American democracy has never been stronger: more people voted in this election than ever in Harrison County history, and they voted more Republican than ever before.

The campaign and this election cycle are now at an end. The task of bringing good, conservative government to Harrison County and working for everyone in our county continues.

We said in the campaign making America great again starts right here in Harrison County, and we will do our part.

In the days, weeks, months, and years to come, your Republican elected officials will—as always—strive to serve Harrison County, Indiana, and America with honor, integrity, and conservative common sense.

We will continue to deliver good, conservative government. We also hope to continue to provide a government of which you can be proud.

Thank you for your support, your prayers, and your vote.

This was truly your victory.
