Charles Patrick White (born 1969)[5] is the former Republican Indiana Secretary of State, having been first elected to the statewide executive position in November 2010. Prior to that, he served as Chairman of the Hamilton County Republican Party and as a member of the town council of Fishers, a northern suburb of Indianapolis.

He served as the 60th Secretary of State of Indiana from 2011 to 2012.[6][7]

He was removed from office on February 4, 2012, after a jury convicted him on six felony counts including perjury, theft and voter fraud.[8] On February 23, he was sentenced to one year's house arrest.
