INDIANAPOLIS – Former Mike Pence aide Diego Morales has won the Republican nomination for secretary of state in Indiana — an office documents show he once was fired from — defeating incumbent Holli Sullivan.

that Gov. Eric Holcomb's influence is dwindling in his second term. Holcomb had appointed Sullivan in March 2021 after then-Secretary of State Connie Lawson announced her retirement.

Why did Evo Morales find such favour at the Vatican?
