Ballard pledges to depoliticize secretary of state's office, rivals push back

Original: Ballard wants secretary of state's office 'out of politics.' His opponents see a problem

An Indiana secretary of state candidate, Ballard, is campaigning on a promise to take the office 'out of politics,' arguing it should run as a neutral, nonpartisan agency. His opponents have seized on the pledge, saying his own record and political ties undercut the message, turning the framing into a running dispute in the race.

Why now: The clash over the office's neutrality is a fresh point of attack in an ongoing election campaign.
