On Tuesday, Governor Holcomb appointed Holli Sullivan as Secretary of State. Secretary Sullivan will complete retired Secretary of State Connie Lawson’s term.
And it looks like we're not the only ones who are excited. Check out what fellow Hoosier Republicans are saying about Secretary Sullivan's appointment:
What They're Saying:
Secretary of State Holli Sullivan
“I’m thrilled Rep. Holli Sullivan has accepted this new leadership role for I know she will serve Hoosiers with the same intellect, integrity and energy she brought to the General Assembly. Secretary of State Sullivan hits the ground running, building on the remarkable work Hoosiers have come to expect from the office during Connie Lawson’s historic tenure.” -Governor Holcomb
"Secretary Sullivan will serve Hoosiers well in her new role. In her time at the Statehouse, where she has worked with the Secretary of State prior to the 2020 election to fund cybersecurity improvements." -Lt. Gov. Suzanne Crouch
“Holli Sullivan is a slam-dunk appointment to serve as Secretary of State and Governor Holcomb couldn’t have named a better successor to Secretary Connie Lawson’s legendary career of public service. Under Secretary Lawson, Indiana has an impeccable record of administering safe and secure elections, a record I’m confident Secretary Sullivan will continue. I’m excited to keep working with her, supporting her efforts through 2022 and beyond.” -Chairman Kyle Hupfer
"Congratulations to Holli Sullivan, Indiana's next Secretary of State. I look forward to working alongside you in the days and weeks ahead to safeguard Indiana's elections and serve the great people of this state." -Attorney General Todd Rokita
“Holli Sullivan is a wonderful choice to succeed Secretary Lawson as our next Indiana Secretary of State. I believe she will continue holding the office to the highest of standards and maintain the strong culture of integrity Secretary Lawson has fostered during her distinguished tenure. I have always enjoyed working with our new Secretary of State in her capacity as a state lawmaker and look forward to continuing that collaboration as she takes on this new role.” -Senate President Pro Tem Rodric Bray
"Governor Holcomb made an excellent choice in selecting Holli as our next chief elections officer. She's been a great asset and a strong leader on our team, and she isn't afraid to dig in on tough issues to find common ground. She also brought valuable private and public sector experience along with her extraordinary passion for helping all Hoosiers succeed. We will certainly miss Holli, but we know she will use her talents and background to continue building on Secretary Lawson's success." -Speaker of the House Todd Huston
"Congratulations to Holli Sullivan, our new Secretary of State! I look forward to working alongside you as we continue to provide Hoosiers the best in public service." -Treasurer Kelly Mitchell
"Congrats to State Representative Holli Sullivan who was appointed the next Indiana Secretary of State today by Governor Holcomb." -Congressman Larry Bucshon
"Holli Sullivan has been an invaluable member of our legislative delegation. As a member of the Ways and Means Committee, Holli has worked diligently to serve the needs of Southwest Indiana. She’s been a great legislative partner. I think it bodes well for the greater Evansville Region that both the Lt. Governor and the Secretary of State are from our region." -Mayor Lloyd Winnecke
