The city operates under a mayor-council government with nine council members representing both districts and at-large seats. Candidate lists, local ballot measures, and sample ballots are available through the Vigo County election board's website. Polling place assignments can be found by visiting indianavoters. gov and entering a name and date of birth, or by calling the election board directly.
