VIGO COUNTY, Ind.  – Controversy in the Vigo County Democrat Party over committee members that signed a candidates petition to run for office who is not a Democrat.

Democratic committee person Debrah Kirk-Peters says other members of the Vigo County Democratic Party signed a petition to get independent mayoral candidate Pat Goodwin on the ballot.

She wants those that signed to resign from their party positions.

Kirk-Peters says that if they don’t she will petition to have them removed.

Of those that signed Goodwin’s petition none have indicated that they would resign.

Goodwin is running against Democrat Karrum Nasser and incumbent Republican Mayor Duke Bennett.

So far no action has been taken against those that signed the petition.
