June 29th, 2010Stacey Page

     Kosciusko County Clerk Jason McSherry joins Indiana Secretary of State Todd Rokita in announcing that beginning Thursday, July 1, Indiana residents will gain the ability to register to vote online.
     Online Voter Registration will become the newest addition to www.indianavoters.com and will allow Indiana residents to submit a voter registration application electronically to the appropriate county voter registration office.
     “This is yet another exciting example of how our voting process is becoming simpler and more convenient by incorporating the tools and technologies Hoosiers use everyday,” said Indiana Secretary of State Todd Rokita, who serves as Indiana’s Chief Election Official and whose office has worked to develop the online voter registration application. “Giving our citizens access to an online registration tool also helps local election administrators better serve voters and should cut their costs, all while enhancing accessibility, accuracy and security.”

June 29th, 2010Stacey Page

     A bicyclist who crashed while being pulled by a mo-ped earlier this month has died as a result of his injuries.
     Gregory Templeton, 37, of Elkhart, was taken to Elkhart General Hospital after his bicycle fell over on CR 21, north of CR 2, at about 12:50 p.m. June 12. Templeton, who was not wearing a helmet, was treated for his head, arm and leg injuries and was released June 13. After returning to the hospital for treatment this past weekend, he died Monday.
     Initially, the 18-year-old mo-ped rider told an officer with the Elkhart County Sheriff’s Department he saw the bicyclist fall, but that he had no role in the accident. Police now know the mo-ped rider was pulling the bike at about 10 mph, and the investigation is continuing.
