Porter County Clerk Jessica Bailey accepts Democratic nomination for Indiana comptroller

“I think it is important that if an individual is accepting a salary that they also put the work in to do the position and complete it to the fullest of their ability,” said Bailey. “I don’t necessarily think that that’s being done.” She said she will do this by updating the transparency portal and being upfront with the public about the work her office is doing. “Every elected official should care about transparency,” said Bailey. Bailey is likely to face Republican incumbent Elise Nieshalla at the polls this November.
