Welcome to the portal for Ballotpedia's coverage of Indiana politics! Ballotpedia's encyclopedic coverage of Indiana politics includes information on the local, state and federal levels, as well as state policies.

The government of Indiana consists of three branches--the judicial, the legislative and the executive branches. The state government was first formed in December 1816 when it replaced the government of the Indiana Territory. In 1851, a new constitution was adopted by the state.

Indiana has two members of the U.S. Senate, a total of nine members of the U.S. House of Representatives, 100 members of the House of Representatives and 50 members of the State Senate.
