RepublicanIN-6 · Representative

In the 2024 House race for IN-6, Jefferson Shreve (R) won with 63.9% of the vote, defeating Cynthia "Cinde" Wirth (D) who received 31.7%. A third candidate also appeared on the ballot. Jefferson Shreve's 32.2-point advantage over the runner-up confirmed a comfortable win.
This was an open-seat race with no incumbent running — Greg Pence (R) previously held the seat. Open seats typically attract stronger candidates and heavier spending from both parties. The 2024 presidential election drove higher voter turnout, which can help or hurt down-ballot candidates depending on the top of the ticket. The wide margin suggests this district is firmly in the Republican column for the foreseeable future.
