Paul Ryan visits Indy Monday

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) - Paul Ryan will be in Indianapolis Monday for a fundraiser.

The Republican Vice Presidential candidate will attend a lunchtime fundraiser at the JW Marriott in downtown Indianapolis.

The fundraiser costs $1,000 per ticket and $10,000 per table. The event is closed to the media and public, and there is a good reason for that. Polls show the Republican ticket holds a double digit lead over the Obama campaign here in Indiana.

The money raised Monday will likely go towards swing states, like Ohio.

This visits comes just after a Rasmussen Poll shows that if the election were held today, the Romney Ryan campaign would win Indiana's 11 electoral votes.

A survey of likely voters shows Romney and Ryan would receive 51 percent of the vote. These stats much different than four years ago, when Obama was the Indiana favorite. Before the 2008 election, Obama visited the Hoosier state close to 50 times.
