“Don’t know if this is the way it works or not.”
It DOESN’T...

In Indiana, the Sec of State runs the Primaries, NOT THE PARTY.
No Candidate filed means the seat goes UNCHALLENGED in November!!!

According to the deadlines shown here

there is a deadline of June 30, 2010 "for the Democrat or Republican party to fill a vacancy on the general election ballot due to primary election ballot vacancy."

....so, I'm not sure.

No, the dems can slate a candidate for November at their Party Congress in August. This is not an unopposed seat.
