Who is my U.S. representative in IN-08?
Your U.S. representative for Indiana's 8th District is Mark Messmer (Republican). He's served since January 3, 2025, and the district covers southwest and west central Indiana, anchored in Evansville, and also includes Jasper, Princeton, Terre Haute, Vincennes, and Washington. GovTrack.us Wikipedia A quick note: he's up for reelection this November. Messmer and Daniel George are running against each other in the Republican primary on May 5, 2026, and the winner will face the Democratic nominee in the November 3, 2026 general election — so if this district is competitive for you, it's worth checking back after the election to confirm who holds the seat come January.
