Two vote center locations in Terre Haute will be open for early voting Tuesday through Election Day.
The Vote Yes on #1 campaign is reminding residents that all registered voters in Vigo County can vote in the casino referendum .
“Bringing a casino to Vigo County has the potential to transform our community. A casino will bring hundreds of jobs, millions of dollars in investment and economic development, increased tourism and nearly half a million dollars a year for Vigo County schools,” said John Collett, Chair of the Advance West Central Indiana PAC. “This will be a game changer for our region, and we need everyone to get to the polls and Vote Yes on #1.”
In addition to the casino referendum, a tax referendum proposed by the Vigo County School Corporation will also be on the ballot.
If the referendum passes, it would result in a 16.2 cent tax rate increase for eight years. Haworth explained that the increase would result in an approximate $53 increase for property owners with a home value of $100,000.
Another race to watch will be the Terre Haute mayoral race , with four candidates vying for the spot.
Incumbent Mayor Duke Bennett will face off against Democratic candidate Karrum Nasser and independents Pat Goodwin and Shane Meehan.
WTWO/WAWV sat down with each candidate to hear their platform, what issues stand out in the community and the direction they’d like to see the city head.
