Indiana’s 2024 Primary Election will be held Tuesday, May 7.

In addition, all Indiana counties must make in-person absentee voting available the two Saturdays immediately before the election.
Each year, thousands of volunteers in Indiana donate their time and energy to make their communities a better place to live. These volunteers will be among the millions across the country who will be spotlighted during the 50th anniversary of National Volunteer Week, April 21- 27.
