Amanda Brown Kotis
Office history
Amanda Brown Kotis is a Democratic candidate for the Iredell County Board of Commissioners in the 2026 North Carolina elections. County commissioners in North Carolina are elected officials who set policy, approve the county budget, and oversee local services such as public safety, health, and infrastructure. Kotis is seeking to bring her experience from state‑level campaigns to the county level.
Born in 1979, Kotis holds an associate degree and works as a dentist, as listed in public records for Iredell County [12]. She resides in Mooresville, NC, within Iredell County, at 132 Pebble Brook Lane [12]. Her professional background includes administrative and managerial responsibilities, suggesting experience in overseeing operations and budgets.
Kotis entered electoral politics as the Democratic nominee for North Carolina House District 95 in both the 2020 and 2022 general elections. In 2020 she received 34.3% of the vote (19,098 votes) against incumbent Republican Grey Mills Jr., who won 65.7% (36,557 votes) [1]. She ran again in 2022, earning 32.5% (10,854 votes) while Mills secured 67.5% (22,524 votes) [1]. Both primaries were canceled, and she advanced automatically as the Democratic candidate.
During her 2020 campaign, Kotis signed the U.S. Term Limits pledge, committing to co‑sponsor and support a constitutional amendment establishing term limits for members of Congress [11]. This pledge was highlighted by the national term‑limits organization as evidence of her willingness to pursue institutional reforms.
In the 2026 race, Kotis is campaigning for a seat on the Iredell County Board of Commissioners. While a specific campaign website has not been identified, her prior candidacies and public statements indicate a focus on fiscal responsibility, local governance, and broader reforms such as term limits. Voters can expect her to draw on her professional experience in healthcare and management, as well as her prior legislative campaign experience, to address county issues.
