Welcome! Rod Roberts for Governor

Thank you for coming to find out more about my campaign for governor. As I’ve been traveling across Iowa, it’s become clear that Iowans want a change. Iowans feel like they are losing control of their state government. Not only is state government spending taxpayer dollars at all time highs, but it hasn’t responded when Iowans have needed it most. Iowans deserve better!

This campaign is about restoring Iowans’ confidence in a competent, efficient state government that will spend taxpayer dollars wisely and be responsive to the needs of Iowans. We all know that it's time for a change—it's time to build a better Iowa!

Thanks for your support,

Rod

Branstad: Roberts Deserves Consideration For Governor.

Ray and Branstad, Iowa's last two Republican governors, served for a combined 30 years from, 1969 to 1999. They see Roberts, an evangelical Christian who can reach out to moderates in the party and even some Democrats and independents, as the sort of bridge-building politician who could be a strong contender against Democratic Gov. Chet Culver.

"Certainly he'd be one that I want to see considered," Branstad told the Daily Times Herald. "He has the ability and the personality to do it."
