As a note, from 2005-2013, the Governor of Indiana was a Republican.

I did know this, does this not allow me to unseat them?

I know.

Seeing as you inherit the record of the officeholder, unfortunately you must from the same party (unless the office is nonpartisan). Unfortunately in this circumstance, we believe it would be unlikely for a Democrat to inherit the record of Mitch Daniels.
