State Convention Overview
The 2026 State Democratic Convention will take place on Saturday, June 6, 2026 at the Indiana Marriott Downtown (350 W Maryland St, Indianapolis, IN 46225) and Indiana Convention Center in Downtown Indianapolis. Delegates will attend this convention from all 92 counties and gather to approve the Party platform, do Party business, and select the Party’s 2026 nominees for three statewide offices: Secretary of State, State Treasurer, and State Comptroller (last elected as State Auditor in 2022).
State Delegates are the only people eligible to vote at the State Convention (Saturday, June 6). Delegates will vote on:
- Candidates up for nomination: Secretary of State, Treasurer, and Comptroller
- Representation to State Convention Committees (Credentials, Resolutions, and Rules)
- The 2026 Indiana Democratic Party Platform
Delegates who were elected or appointed before May 11 should be receiving the Call to Convention in the mail. Delegates who were appointed after that deadline will not receive it through the mail, but can view it here.
Please note that Indiana Comic Con will also be occurring the same weekend in the Convention Center.
