Republican Treasurer Daniel Elliott is running for a second term, seeking to retain nearly $1.8 billion in state investment earnings in his bid, while Democratic challenger Coumba Kebe is calling for greater transparency in how Indiana manages public money. Both candidates aim to expand the office's work with local communities and help more Hoosiers use its savings programs. However, they differ on how to evaluate investment decisions and communicate with taxpayers. Elliott, who serves as Indiana’s chief investment officer, is seeking another four years to continue his investment strategy, strengthen cybersecurity for 911 systems and help local governments finance infrastructure. Kebe, a health care executive, argues that her work with seniors and people with disabilities demonstrates the consequences of statewide financial decisions. Elliott argues that earning more from public money reduces pressure to raise taxes and that public investment decisions should focus on financial returns rather than political agendas.
