“Ready to see what the next level of iconic burger is like? It’s here!,” said WSLM Radio Owner and General Manager Rebecca White. “It’s hotter, juicier and tastier than ever.”

Download the McDonald’s app, order ahead and snag a DOUBLE BIG MAC. That’s right! Not two but FOUR 100% pure beef patties with that iconic sauce and pillowy bun.

White tried the new Double Big Mac for the first time on Tuesday afternoon (see video below).

Tune in this week on WSLM 97.9 FM and listen for your chance to win a McDonald’s ARCH card that you can use to try the new sandwich. 

Originally introduced in March 2020, the Double Big Mac has the same ingredients and taste that McDonald’s fans know and love, including pickles, shredded lettuce, chopped onions, a slice of American cheese, now with four 100 percent all-beef patties and more Big Mac sauce.

Recent updates to the McDonald’s burger recipe are also implemented in the Double Big Mac, including softer, pillowy buns and a juicer, caramelized flavor, making these their best burgers yet.

Customers can always customize their order to match their personal taste preferences, including holding the onions and pickles, or adding even more of the sauce they crave.

The Double Big Mac can be purchased in store or on the app on its own or as part of a Combo Meal, which comes with a side of the World-Famous Fries and a fountain drink.

Prices for the Double Big Mac are determined at individual restaurants and may vary between locations.

Indiana Secretary of State Diego Morales and his election administration staff are closely monitoring reports of attempted candidate petition signature fraud coming from county election offices where workers are responsible for verifying signatures and addresses.

As February 9^th deadline for candidate filing for Indiana’s 2024 Primary Election nears, last week a handful of county election offices reported concerns involving apparent fraudulent signatures and invalid addresses on nomination petitions filed for voter certification.

The Secretary of State’s Office has been in communication with election administrators in the counties reporting these issues.

Proper protocol, which involves preserving materials and notifying law enforcement agencies, is being followed.

The Secretary of State has requested the Indiana State Police and Indiana Election Division assist the counties involved.

Only petitions signed by registered Indiana voters are acceptable for candidate qualification.

Secretary Morales commends county clerks and staff for professionalism and attention to detail in the verification of thousands of nominating petition signatures and addresses, to assure candidates meet qualification requirements.

“I’m reminding each of our county clerks and election administrators across the Hoosier state to be vigilant during the filing review process. As Indiana’s Chief Election Officer, I hold election integrity to the highest standard. Be assured that my staff and I are taking this matter seriously.  Hoosier voters deserve secure and trustworthy elections,” said Indiana Secretary of State Diego Morales.
