It takes a simple majority in both chambers to override a governor’s veto in Indiana. A Democrat-ruled House and Republican-controlled Senate passed a budget during a contentious special session in 1993 by overriding a veto by then Democratic Gov. Evan Bayh. It happened on June 30, the last day of the fiscal year.

The full Senate met on the first day of this special session, but quickly adjourned until further notice. Members plan to return once the House sends them a budget bill, which could be later this week or early next week.
