Izaah Knox Runs Unopposed for Polk Co. Supervisor

Iowa State Senator Izaah Knox, a Democrat from Des Moines, is running unopposed for Polk County supervisor in District five. Knox, who is wrapping up his first term in the Iowa Senate, brings a wealth of experience in education, leadership, and community involvement. He has a track record of managing winning school board campaigns and has held fellowships in education and leadership. Knoxs focus is on addressing everyday struggles amid county growth, with a particular emphasis on housing, mental health care, food access, childcare, education, and job creation. He plans to shield public safety, health services, veterans aid, and housing help while trimming waste in contracts and admin costs. In terms of water quality, Knox wants Polk County to lead with monitoring, farm partnerships, wetlands, and stormwater fixes from farm to faucet. With no challengers in the June second primary or the November third general election, Knox is poised to steer county resources toward neighborhood wins and partner with nonprofits, businesses, and communities to help everyone live, work, and thrive in central Iowa.
