Obama's Iowa Team

Barack Obama staffs up in Iowa:

Brad Anderson will serve as Obama's communications director in the Hawkeye State. He served Gov. Chet Culver in the same capacity from August 2006 through May 2008, before being named as a partner at LinkStrategies, a Des Moines-based political consulting firm. In 2003-04, Anderson served as an Iowa political and policy advisor to Sen. John Edwards during his 2004 presidential campaign.

Tripp Wellde will serve as Obama's Iowa field director. He has been with the campaign since March 3, 2007, when he landed in Davenport, IA. Since helping to secure Obama's victory in the Iowa Caucuses, Wellde has worked as a regional field director in NV, MN and OH. He also worked as deputy field director in NC.
