He’s criticized Indiana’s election security, arguing the state needs to do more to prevent non-citizens from voting.

Indiana Republicans nominated Diego Morales as their Secretary of State candidate—a man who in 2009 was terminated for poor performance, and rehired again in 2011, and then put on a performance plan again and then resigning from the very office he could now lead next year.
