(30 minutes) A conversation that takes place before the primary two weeks ago:

One thing for Iowa Democrats is that our candidates hail from across the state. This shows that the power of Iowa’s Democratic Party is not just in the cities but is also moving out to the hinterlands as Republican policy in Iowa is being exposed as bad and corrupt.

Rob Sand set a standard for integrity and hard work as auditor. Republicans feared him so much they legislatively stripped his office of power. Now that Sand is running for governor, Republicans have cut the power of the governor.

I believe we can expect the same integrity and hard work from Taylor Wettach as Iowa State auditor. Sine the Republican legislature has shown itself to be untrustworthy, we better have an auditor who is trustworthy.
