艾奥瓦州当选州长 Rob Sand 称选民给了执政授权 将与共和党合作治州
艾奥瓦州波尔克县 Des Moines 消息：艾奥瓦州当选州长 Rob Sand 11月6日在爱荷华公共电视台《爱荷华新闻》节目录制中表示，选民在11月3日的中期选举中给了他执政的授权，他上任后将与共和党人合作治州。
Sand 在选举中以55%对44%击败共和党对手 Zach Lahn，接替不再连任的共和党州长 Kim Reynolds。2022年 Reynolds 曾以18个百分点的优势赢得连任，Sand 说，从2022年到今年的选情摆动之大，足以说明选民授权的含义。
Sand 表示，过渡团队已经成立，正着手编制州预算，预算方案将包括对私立学校教育储蓄账户设定收入上限、对大麻征税并加强监管，以及规范数据中心发展。目前艾奥瓦州的支出比收入多出约10亿美元，Sand 说，新预算将致力于削减州财政赤字。

Iowa Governor-Elect Rob Sand Says Voters Gave Him a Mandate and He Will Work With Republicans
DES MOINES, Iowa — Iowa Governor-elect Rob Sand said on November 6, during a taping of Iowa PBS's Iowa Press, that voters gave him a governing mandate in the November 3 midterm election, and that he will work with Republicans once he takes office.
Sand defeated Republican Zach Lahn by 55 percent to 44 percent and will succeed Republican Gov. Kim Reynolds, who did not seek re-election. Reynolds won re-election in 2022 by 18 points; Sand said the size of the swing from 2022 to this year shows what the voters' mandate means.
Sand said his transition team is in place and is drafting a state budget that would cap income eligibility for private-school education savings accounts, tax and more tightly regulate marijuana, and set rules for data centers. Iowa currently spends about $1 billion more than it takes in, and Sand said the new budget will aim to cut the state deficit.
