Beau Bayh’s last name opens a lot of doors in Hoosier State Democrat Party politics. The son of former Indiana governor and U.S. Sen. Evan Bayh has benefitted immensely from name recognition and his daddy’s campaign cash in his run for secretary of state — a post the Democrats haven’t held in 32 years. It’s been nearly a decade and a half since a Dem has been elected to a statewide office of any kind in the ruby red state. 

So when Beau Bayh walked into the City-County Building in Indianapolis Tuesday to vote ahead of next week’s election, the 30-year-old veteran was reportedly hailed as a hero by the Marion County Democrats. Election workers, it seems, were part of the hero worship, Niki Kelly, editor-in-chief of the Indiana Capitol Chronicle, reported. 

“Election workers cheered when he arrived and he took a photo with one volunteer,” Kelly wrote in a post on X at 9 a.m. Tuesday.

The display didn’t sit well with Republicans worried that the political crush on the Bayh family scion might unduly influence the people working Marion County’s elections. 

“Just another reason why we need election monitors in Marion County. Why can’t they just be professional?” commented Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita, a Republican, on Kelly’s X post.
