Were they the last holdout, or is there another region in America that keeps to standard time?

Indiana was really never a hold out, because they were decided region by region. AZ has been the last true holdout for a long time, and we're staying that way. The state with the most sunny days knows you don't need to save daylight.

Arizona does not change to D.S.T. What is the purpose of daylight savings time today?

This will make a lot of people happy here in the Cincinnati area. Many live in Indiana but work in Ohio.

this bill has been discussed in the legislature over two dozen times in the last 30 years. time zones were decided by the Fed DOT, but states could choose to observe DST. Indiana said "NO". But now it will be in line w/ the rest of the world and end the debate of what time is it in Indiana.
To: 4thygipper
Ohio to cancel DST just to annoy Indiana. :-)

I don't care about time change. But this is going to get fun when we start to debate whether we should be on the same time as Cincinnati and Loiusville or Chicago. He He.
The reason stated above is why counties got to pick what time zone they were in. Because the local counties remained reasonable about who stayed on what time, most hoosiers never cared one way or another. Whoopie on the vote. However, This ain't over yet. Before it is, I have money on several counties still being in different time zones within the state.
Stay Tuned.

But Indiana didn't say know across the board, some counties said yes, which is really why nobody knew what time it was in Indiana because during DST there was no one answer, honestly Indiana picked the worst possible answer on the question of DST. Looks like Hawaii still has a brain and doesn't do DST either, AZ doesn't stand alone.

This is exactly correct. Suburb counties around Cinci honored the time change. Suburbs around Chi-town honored their time change.
Guess what. Cinci and Chi-town are in different time zones.

I don't remember the actual list. I do remember that if you stopped to think about it things mostly made sense. But I haven't been in a situation where I worry about the time in Indiana for a while so I've forgotten.
