“Matt it is my pleasure to endorse you and your candidacy in this race for City Council. I wish you all the best and I look forward to serving with you.”
–Matt Pina, Mayor, City of Des Moines
“Matt’s a dedicated, hard-working, no-nonsense guy who will study the issues from all angles, put his energy and work-ethic to the job of representing all of our citizens, and has the integrity that an elected official should possess. That cannot be said of all candidates.”
-Dave Kaplan, Des Moines Councilmember
I will be voting for Matt Mahoney, and I hope you will too.
My first meeting with Mahoney was scheduled for a quick meet and greet. Two and half hours later I left feeling like there was so much more to talk about. I was pleasantly surprised by the depth of care, commitment and common sense he has for our city. As an avid diver, Community Advisory Committee Member, North Hill Block Watch Captain and North Hill Community Club member, he has taken every opportunity to get involved in this city.

I want to go on record as endorsing Matt Mahoney, he has faithfully sat
through council meetings for the last year and has engaged in many community
functions. He has attended events that the Master Builder Association has
put on including their candidate school. He is thoughtful and even if he
doesn’t agree with your position he will listen to you and try to find a
compromise, not shut you down! The best part of Matt – he does NOT want our
city to be a mini Seattle. You have all the votes in our house Matt.Carri Litowitz – Des Moines Resident and Business Owner
