Current Indiana State Comptroller Elise Nieshalla announced her campaign to seek her first full term in that role.

Nieshalla said she wants to build on Indiana’s strong financial foundation. She describes herself as “a proven conservative leader, fiscal policy expert, and successful entrepreneur.”

“Indiana is a model of fiscal responsibility with strong reserves, a AAA credit rating, balanced budget and one of the lowest debt levels in the country. We’re showing what responsible government looks like—and I will fight every day to protect that standard,” Nieshalla said.
