Darryl Brent Waltz Jr. (born September 7, 1973)[3] is an American politician and businessman. He served in the Indiana Senate from 2005 to 2017, representing southern Marion County and northern Johnson County which comprise the 36th Senate District of Indiana following his defeat of Senate Finance Chairman Larry Borst in the May 2004 Republican primary election.[4] His investment banking company, The Baron Group, Inc., specializes in mergers, acquisitions, and capitalization of small to midsize private companies in the transportation and manufacturing industries. In 2016 Waltz announced he would not seek reelection in order to run for Indiana's 9th congressional district being vacated by Congressman Todd Young.[5] Waltz was unsuccessful in this campaign and subsequently indicted for violating federal campaign finance law.[6]
