Indiana, a write-in candidate for the presidency must file a declaration of intent with the secretary of state. The declaration of intent must be filed no earlier than 118 days before the primary and no later than noon on July 3 in the year of the election. A write-in candidate who fails to do this will not be qualified to serve should he or she be elected.

*********************************
As I am uncertain what is meant by Alabama has no requirements for write-in votes for candidates, I will reference Alabama Code Title 17, Section 17-6-28 , which can be found at this link:

Alabama Code Title 17, Section 17-6-28 Requirements for write-in votes.
(a) write-in votes shall be permitted only in non-municipal general elections and shall be counted as provided in this section based on one of the following:
(1) Upon a determination that the number of write-in votes for a specific office is greater than or equal to the difference in votes between the two candidates receiving the greatest number of votes for the specific office.
(2) Upon a written request satisfying the requirements in subsection (i).
Not long ago, I called the Secretary of State’s office asking about write-in votes and was given the above info. I was also told there is a percentage of total votes cast before write-in votes would be counted, but I do not remember that specific percentage.
Regardless, Alabama does have requirements for write-in votes.
