On November 3rd, 2015, all precincts will be open for voting in Fishers during general election day.  The Hamilton County Elections Office confirmed for LarryInFishers that there will be only one contested Fishers race on election day, and that is for City Council At-Large.

That means Mayor Scott Fadness, City Clerk Jennifer Kehl, City Judge Dan Henke and all the district city council members are officially elected to four-year terms in office, beginning January 1, 2016.  Greg Purvis, who was unopposed in the May Primary, will be the only Democrat candidate on the general election ballot in Fishers.

There will be four names on the ballot for city council at-large – Republicans Rich Block, Cecilia Coble and Todd Zimmerman, along with Democrat Purvis.  The three highest vote-getters are elected.  All Fishers city registered voters are able cast their ballots in the at-large council election.  Block, Coble & Zimmerman are incumbents.

Purvis ran in the South Central City Council District in 2014 and was only able to garner 27.76% of the vote.  Republican John Weingardt won that race.

Fishers held a municipal election in 2014 with one year terms at stake in the transition from a town to a city form of local government.

The Hamilton County Democrat Party has the right under Indiana law to appoint candidates to office where no one ran in the primary election, but the deadline to do so expired at noon, July 6th.  The Hamilton County Elections Office says no appointments were made by Democrats by the deadline.

The election office also confirmed there were no Libertarian Party or write-in candidates filing for office in Fishers.
