Potential gubernatorial candidates make pitch

June 27, 2009 By admin

Four men who may seek the Iowa Republican Party’s 2010 nomination for governor appeared at a forum Saturday morning in Sac City. 

Over 60 Republicans from the area ate breakfast seated around picnic tables in an original "Chautauqua" building on the Sac County fairgrounds, then migrated to benches to sit and listen to each man deliver a 15 minute speech.

Click on the audio links below to listen to their remarks. State Senator Jerry Behn of Boone spoke first, followed by Bob Vander Plaats of Sioux City, the 2006 GOP nominee for lieutenant governor who ran for governor in both 2006 and 2002.

Representative Christopher Rants of Sioux City, the former speaker of the Iowa House, was third to speak.  Representative Rod Roberts of Carroll was the final speaker of the morning.
