I don't have reliable, up-to-date information about who currently represents Indiana's 8th congressional district, and this is exactly the kind of fact that changes with elections and can shift over time. To get the accurate, current answer, I'd recommend: 1. **House.gov's "Find Your Representative" tool** — Go to house.gov and enter your ZIP code. This is the official source and will always be current. 2. **GovTrack.us** — Search for "IN-08" to see the current representative along with their voting record and background. 3. **Ballotpedia** — Search "Indiana's 8th congressional district" for detailed information including recent election results. For context, Indiana's 8th district covers the southwestern part of the state, including cities like Evansville and Terre Haute. If you let me know roughly when you're asking (or if you have any other details), I can try to be more helpful, but I'd genuinely encourage using the official House.gov tool for a definitive answer.
