Thanks to Jim Bognan for the catch. Back on August 29, 2005, the Benton County Commissioners voted for Central Time. Here (pdf document) is a link to the Benton County Commissioners petition.
So, to update the tally (and hopefully I’ll get a new map up in the near future), we have the following 16 counties requesting central time: St. Joseph, Starke, Marshall, Pulaski, Fulton, Benton, White, Cass, Carroll, Vermillion, Sullivan, Knox, Daviess, Martin, Pike, Dubois. (That would be in addition to the 10 counties which are currently on Central Time).
Perry is still on the fence with a meeting coming up tomorrow. There has been some conflicting information out of Fountain County.
