According to the Indiana Citizen, April 2, 2026, "The May primary will be the first election held in Indiana since the state’s proof-of-citizenship laws took effect in July 2025 and since Indiana Secretary of State Diego Morales turned over the state’s entire voter roll to the U.S. Department of Justice last fall.
Under the new proof-of-citizenship voter laws, anyone who used a temporary credential from the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles to register to vote may be flagged as a noncitizen and therefore ineligible to participate in elections." Check your Voting Status here
