About the Chamber

2010 Election Cycle - Chamber Interviews Local & State Candidates  

During each election cycle, The Chamber of Commerce of Southwest Indiana is actively engaged in the election process by conducting surveys with candidates running for local and state office.  

This year, volunteer members of the Government Affairs Committee conducted one-on-one video-taped interviews with candidates in select contested local and state legislative races.   

Please note that the video content is property of The Chamber of Commerce of Southwest Indiana and is only for its authorized use.  

The primary purpose of the interviews is to inform our membership and the general public on positions of candidates running for office.  A secondary purpose is to provide The Chamber’s political action committee, Jobs for Southwestern Indiana (JPAC), with additional information for potential endorsements.  JPAC will publicly announce its endorsements in late September.

For questions regarding The Chamber’s Government Affairs Committee or JPAC, please contact Steve Schaefer, VP of Public Policy at sschaefer@ccswin.com.  

The Chamber strongly encourages public review of the below candidate interviews and most importantly, asks you to vote on November 2nd!
