Volunteers Needed to Help Get Sondra On the Ballot
June 2 is the Deadline — Time is Running Out!
by Sondra Wilson. Updated May 12, 2026.
Hello everyone! First, I want to sincerely thank my supporters for the encouragement you've given me throughout my campaign for Iowa governor.
As you know, I've worked diligently to write this comprehensive plan for Iowa's future.
But there is only one way to make any of this happen — and I sincerely need your help.
To get on the ballot, I need to finish gathering 3,500 signatures before June 2. And unfortunately, the Secretary of State's Office doesn't allow online signatures!
I have been petitioning all day, every day, to get on the ballot, but the fact-of-the-matter is, I need help from volunteers like you if you want to get me onto the ballot and into the debates.
To make it as simple as possible, I've assembled step-by-step directions for how to help below.
Step One: Email Me
Please email me at SondraWilson4Governor@gmail.com to let me know you're helping out — and thank you!!
Step Two: Download the Petition
The following petition is directly off the Secretary of State's website. Everything is filled out except for the county. To make it easier here you can download instructions and the PDFs

📄 Download the Petition (Print a Few Copies)
To qualify for the ballot, we must collect 3,500 VALID signatures by June 2.
Because some signatures are invalidated, we actually need to get a lot more of that.
This campaign is powered by people—not parties.
👉 Every signature helps put this plan in front of ALL Iowans.
Getting on the ballot depends on regular Iowans stepping up and helping gather signatures.
What to Do (Quick Overview)
Step-by-Step
1. Download and Print the Petition
👉 Write the county name at the top of each page before collecting signatures.

2. Ask People to Sign
When asking for signatures, say:
“Signing does NOT mean you're voting — it simply puts Sondra on the ballot so Iowans have a choice.”
You can also show them the website or the PDF overview.

3. Follow These Rules (IMPORTANT)
⚠️ ONE COUNTY PER PETITION PAGE
Each petition page can ONLY contain signatures from ONE county. There's a blank space to write the county at the bottom of the header on the petition.
Before anyone signs, ALWAYS ask:
👉 “What county are you registered in?”
Then do this:
- Write that county at the top of the page
- Only collect signatures from people in that same county
Each signer MUST:
- Live in Iowa
- Write their home address
- Sign clearly
- Be eligible to vote in Iowa
Not registered?
👉 They can still sign if they are eligible (18+, Iowa resident)
🚫 Do NOT mix counties on one page — this can invalidate the entire sheet

4. Mail Completed Petitions
Sondra Wilson for Iowa Governor
P.O. Box 1952
Ames, IA 50010
👉 Mail by May 25 to ensure arrival before the deadline.
Why This Matters
These ideas—jobs, education, healthcare, and justice reform—
can only be discussed, debated, and voted on…
👉 Only if we get on the ballot first
Everything starts here.
