Oh, really? Last night they weren't. There was a wreck on 35/80 that took the entire shift of the sheriff's office to take care of. Which means all of Polk county covered by them and many smaller towns without their own police force were potentially unprotected last night. The response time to distant areas would have been in the 15-20 minute range.
Of course, this came to light because of the heated sheriff's race in Polk county. The Republican candidate seems to be as close to a wookie suiter as one can be and still be in the R party. And the Dem incumbent hates evil high capacity magazines. This race is more interesting than the Steve King / Christine Vilsack race... Not that a Republican has a serious chance of winning in Polk county.
