Rob Sand can't be a good Governor if Democrats don't flip or hold more down-ballot seats in the Iowa General Assembly. Republicans have a near supermajority of seats which would make it harder for Rob Sand to push his agenda as Governor.

Learn more about local candidates and volunteer with them if there's any opportunities available:
