This election season, while candidates are tackling a wide variety of issues, two have taken center stage: education and job creation. Both are top priorities for virtually every Indiana candidate at the state level


 


Meanwhile, at the Allen County level, while education and job growth are also being addressed, candidates here are focusing on fiscal responsibility.


 


Money is also on the mind of John Gregg, Democratic candidate for Indiana Governor. Gregg met with IPFW students today, just hours after his latest finance report were released.


 


Gregg has raised $1 million. That's about $2 million less than Republican opponent Mike Pence.


 


The latest poll numbers show pence with a strong lead at 47 percent among likely voters. Gregg trails with 34 percent.


 


The three candidates for governor will have their second debate at 7P.M. on Wednesday in South Bend.
