Campaign themes

On his campaign website, Pottebaum stated:[2]
- “I am running because our middle class families need a strong voice at the Iowa Capitol. We’re trying to get back on our feet in northwest Iowa and folks up here need someone in Des Moines who’s going to fight for them. I’ll stand up for what’s right and I’ll fight every day for policies that create jobs for middle class families and I’ll support initiatives that help our small business community.”
