🚨 Rob Sand’s campaign is scrambling to bury that he was an underwear model strutting runways in Paris.
While real Iowans caucused, he posed in panties overseas.
This nonsense should END his run for Governor.
Iowa deserves better than a former runway diva. #IAGov
It seems like calling education savings accounts "welfare" is the new line of attack this week.
It's a smear to stigmatize parents who benefit from them, which I find ironic coming from many of the people saying these things. #SchoolChoice#StudentsFirst#iagov
"Right to Repair" is one of the reasons @ZachLahn (GOP nominee for Iowa governor) chose State Rep Derek Wulf as his running mate, Lahn said in a statement today.
I recorded this clip in April as Wulf ran a right to repair bill through an Iowa House subcommittee. #IAGov#ialegis
Self-proclaimed “political outsider” @ZachLahn’s image is based on a complete lie.
Lahn’s resume is full of paid work for splashy political campaigns and DC elites ⬇️ #IAGov
The 2026 @IowaGOP ticket is really taking carpetbagging to a new level:
@ZachLahn lives part-time in Kansas
Wulf’s voter registration is at someone else’s house
@millermeeks still lives in Ottumwa
@joemitchelliowa “moved” Clear Lake days before announcing
#IAGov#IA01#IA02
Statement from @RobSandIA 's campaign about Zach Lahn picking Derek Wulf for lieutenant governor: "further proof that a Lahn administration would mean more of the same failed status quo and one-party rule that’s left too many Iowans behind"

Statement on Zach Lahn's Running Mate
DES MOINES, IA – This morning, career political operative and Kansas carpetbagger Zach Lahn announced his running mate, Iowa state Representative Derek Wulf.
“If you wanted further proof that a Lahn administration would mean more of the same failed status quo and one-party rule that’s left too many Iowans behind, look no further than his selection of Derek Wulf as his running mate” said Deputy Campaign Manager Emma O’Brien. “Wulf is a partisan insider who voted to gut the Auditor's Office, opening the door to waste, fraud, and abuse of tax dollars, helped pass an unaccountable school voucher program that is draining resources from public schools, and even led efforts to weaken oversight of Iowa's water quality. Iowans are ready for change after a decade of one-party rule that has left them behind, and know that they will only get more of the same from a Lahn-Wulf administration.”
Yeah, Dems struck out with #IAGov. A strong Dem nominee weak GOP nominee in a blue wave year. Ditto with Ohio. I still think Sullivan probably wins, but it will be close. However, Peltola winning is the Dems path to the majority.
Trump suggests he didn't get "proper information" about the #IAGOV Republican primary, where he made a last-minute endorsement of Randy Feenstra, who lost to Zach Lahn.
"The other person was much more 'Trump,' as you know, than Randy," Trump says.
Libertarian #IASen candidate Thomas Laehn was not challenged and will be on the November ballot.
Objections claim #IAGov candidate Gluba misspelled his own street address & cite inconsistency in spelling of his running mate's name (Julia Cutler and Jules Cutler). 2/
In 2019, @KimReynoldsIA and GOP lawmakers changed the judicial nominating process Iowa had used since 1962, to give @IAGovernor more power over the commission that sends her finalists.
Dems opposed the change but it's only fair for Sand to use that power if elected.
