Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox officeholder Devon Wood is an American politician.

Personal life

Wood's father is a farmer, and her mother is a teacher.[1] She graduated from Shenandoah High School in Shenandoah, Iowa in 2015,[2] and is a resident of New Market, Iowa.[1] She later attended Simpson College but did not graduate. Wood wrote for The Simpsonian student publication between 2018 and 2020,[3][4] and also played softball for the Simpson College Storm.[5]

Political career

While attending college, Wood led the Simpson College Republicans and was vice chair and later chair of the Iowa Federation of College Republicans.[2][6] She also worked for state legislators Clel Baudler and Mary Ann Hanusa.[2][7]

After incumbent legislator Matt Windschitl was redistricted from District 17 of the Iowa House of Representatives and Cecil Dolecheck announced his retirement, Wood decided to run for office.[2][8] She defeated Paul Dykstra, who previously served as a Ringgold County supervisor, in the Republican Party primary.[8][9] Wood won the general election against Pat Shipley, a teacher, and mayor of Nodaway, Iowa, affiliated with the Democratic Party.[10][11]
