Ed DeLaney has long been a behind the scenes guy in Indiana politics, both as an organizer and as an election law attorney (and, of course, husband to Ann DeLaney of Indiana Week in Review fame.)  Now he wants to be on the other side of things.  DeLaney plans to step out today as a candidate for slating in Indiana House District 86.

There’s a vacancy in 86 because Democrat state Rep. David Orentlicher filed this week to be a candidate in the May primary in the 7th Congressional District.  86 just happens to be ground zero in the property tax debate.
