Secretary of State Diego Morales is continuing to visit several counties hand delivering local Election Improvement Grants.
He stopped in La Porte County Wednesday, September 3 to deliver a $19,320.52 grant check to the clerk’s office for election improvements.
Since the start of the year, Secretary Morales has delivered grant checks to more than 85 Indiana counties for local election security, safety, and voter outreach projects. The counties are receiving grant dollars from the Federal Help America Vote Act to go toward local election improvement and security efforts. This new round of statewide grants is valued at approximately $1 million.
Previous funding has been utilized for a wide variety of improvements such as voter outreach efforts, additional signage, security upgrades, and more. Many counties implemented election improvements for the Primary Election.
