DES MOINES, IOWA (October 7, 2022) Rob Sand for Iowa announced the endorsement of 31 Republican, Libertarian, and self-described conservative leaders from across the state today. The list includes current and former elected officials and candidates, Republican Party of Iowa staffers, and private sector leaders.

Rob has put Independents, Republicans, and Democrats in senior leadership in his office, and is willing to defend the other party or criticize his own even outside of his official duties, said Mike Mahaffey, former Chairman of the Republican Party of Iowa. Iowans need an independent, assertive State Auditor. I have known Rob since his days as an Assistant Attorney General. Rob is a good public servant who strives to serve all Iowans regardless of who they are or which party they belong to. He reminds me of former State Auditor Dick Johnson, a Republican who had the respect and admiration of people across the political spectrum.

Rob Sand understands why people are fed up with politics and strives to do things differently, said State Representative Dave Maxwell (R-Gibson). He serves the public interest, not partisan interests and works hard to protect the taxpayer. Common-sense Iowa voters can be confident in the work Rob Sand is doing as Auditor.

You can trust divisiveness and politics-as-usual is out the window when you see Republican, Libertarian, and conservative leaders all supporting a Democrat, said Sand. Our anti-partisan approach identified more than $25 million in misspent funds, created a government efficiency program so good the State Auditor of Mississippi copied it, and held insiders of both parties accountable. Ill continue that work in my second term if awarded one by voters.
