Beau Bayh talks reform. His father’s political war chest helps pay the bills.
According to the Indiana Capital Chronicle, Evan Bayh transferred at least $2.4 million to Indiana Democrats while the party directed $2.2 million toward supporting Beau’s campaign.
Hoosiers deserve answers about the money and connections behind his campaign.
Indiana’s Secretary of State’s office is not a Bayh family inheritance.

@JeorgeIII I’m more active on other platforms, but even that can be sporadic. I hate social media, so generating content for it is the first thing to fall off even a short to-do list. But I was watching the debate and X is pretty much the only platform for this kind of content.
Welp, fun debate. Time for Max to go back to his Indiana family, at his Indiana home, that's totally in Indiana because he's a real Indianan. Max's home livecam:
In this clip, @BeauBayh lays out three things NOBODY else on stage would commit to: Audit the office, not trade individual stocks, and not award contracts to donors. The choice is clear!
After spending a decade in D.C. trading stocks and getting rich, perhaps @MaxForIndiana IS the most experienced person to step into the SOS office as it currently operates. But I say #GoBeau to change the office entirely and make it work for the people again!
If the Supreme Court won't let us get money out of politics entirely, we need Bayh's plan to inject sunlight directly into the campaign finance system in Indiana. @MaxForIndiana just wants to find new ways to collect illegal contributions.
I told Tippy Toes Diego he wasn't going to be driving that Denali next year. A vote for @BeauBayh means nobody will driving that luxury SUV on taxpayer's dime.
@BeauBayh calls for citizen-led ballot initiatives. HELL YES! Do you know how many times I've talked to my neighbors and they've asked "why can't we vote on this issue like [insert state] can?"
Beau's answer on AI shows his deep understanding of this office and what Hoosiers need. Max says we need to lock up notary impersonators (wtf) Beau says he'll use his office's securities oversight to take on people who use AI to scam older Hoosiers.
Engling's first priority isn't cleaning up the rampant corruption in that office?! He wants a transparency portal...but won't support Bayh's push for a forensic audit.
Okay, love that @BeauBayh mentioned selling that $92k luxury SUV. I authored the bill outlawing future purchases of vehicles like that - but republicans killed my effort to dispose of the existing luxury vehicles.
@MaxForIndiana opens tonight by essentially saying "things are great in Indiana" and he'll keep it that way. What world is he living in? He's running to replace the most scandal-plagued official in the state!
Two IMPD East District officers were shot last night while responding to a disturbance call. They were doing exactly what we ask of them every day: showing up when our community needed help. I got notified of the incident as it happened. Like most law enforcement families, Brittany and I waited anxiously for an update on their condition. I'm thankful both officers are reported to be in stable condition.
My thoughts are with the injured officers, their loved ones, and all of my sisters and brothers at IMPD. Wishing them a full and speedy recovery.
