Lt. Gov. Cournoyer announces 2026 state auditor campaign
Iowa Lieutenant Governor Chris Cournoyer, a Republican with a background in technology and government, has announced her candidacy for State Auditor in 2026. Cournoyer emphasizes her commitment to transparency, efficiency, and nonpartisan oversight, stating the Auditor's office should serve as a watchdog for taxpayers rather than a political weapon. She has pledged to bring technology-driven solutions, including the integration of AI, to improve audit processes and government accountability. Governor Kim Reynolds has endorsed Cournoyer, highlighting her record of fiscal discipline, her role in government realignment, and her commitment to taxpayers. The current State Auditor, Rob Sand, a Democrat, is expected to run for governor, leaving the office open for the next election. Cournoyer's campaign centers on using her experience in technology and business to root out inefficiencies and deliver timely, transparent audits for Iowans.
