Rob Sand, the last remaining Democrat in statewide office, announces his run for governor - Little Village

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

63% : "It really changed the direction of my life altogether," Sand told Iowa Starting Line in 2015.
48% : Such appeals have been normal for Sand since his first run for office ("I've prosecuted Republicans and Democrats and will continue to ignore partisan affiliation as State Auditor," he said when he announced his campaign in November 2017), but in his interview with the Register, Sand went further than usual in disavowing political partisanship.
47% : Sand told the Register he intends to keep his campaign focused on Iowa, rather than engaging in political debates at the national level.
40% : Now, I'm taking my fight to the governor's office to serve all Iowans by lowering costs, continuing to make government accountable to taxpayers, and working with both parties to create more opportunities to help Iowa families not just get by, but thrive and live healthy lives.
