Former GOP Indiana Attorney General Curtis Hill launched a gubernatorial campaign on Monday to succeed Gov. Eric Holcomb (R-IN), who is term-limited.

"It’s official! After much prayer and consideration, I have decided to launch my campaign for Governor," Hill tweeted. "Hoosiers are hungry for fresh, conservative leadership. I look forward to the coming weeks as we share our message with Hoosiers up and down Indiana!"

WHY THE UFO WHISTLEBLOWERS ARE GETTING A MIXED REACTION

Hill joins a growing list of Republicans vying to become Indiana's next governor that includes Sen. Mike Braun (R-IN), Lt. Gov. Suzanne Crouch (R-IN), and businessman Eric Doden.

In 2016, Hill was elected as the Hoosier State's 43rd attorney general as a candidate who embraced anti-abortion ideology and was tough on crime. Prior to that, he was an Elkhart County prosecutor for 14 years. He faced allegations in 2018 of groping four women at a bar, but he denied any wrongdoing. At the time, state leaders including Holcomb called for Hill to resign from office. Hill lost his reelection bid in 2020 to Todd Rokita, and the Indiana Supreme Court suspended his law license for 30 days.

He also failed in his bid to replace the late Rep. Jackie Walorski (R-IN), who died in a car crash in 2022, to Rudy Yakym.

Last month, the Associated Press reported that Hill was attempting another political comeback in the wake of his ouster from office.

“Our state deserves a proven conservative who has the guts to challenge the Indianapolis status quo and the grit to stand up against the Washington, D.C., crowd," he said at the time.
