Accessed February 26, 2010.</ref>

==History==
On January 13, 1846, the legislative body of the [[Iowa Territory]] authorized creation of twelve counties,<ref>The counties were Boone, Clarke, Dallas, Decatur, Jasper, Lucas, Madison, Marshall, Polk, Story, Warren, and Wayne.</ref> with general descriptions of their boundaries.<ref>{{cite book|url=https://archive.org/details/historyofpolkcou1880unio|title=The History of Polk County, Iowa: Containing a History of the County, Its Cities, Towns, &c|publisher=Union Historical Co.|year=1880|pages=[https://archive.org/details/historyofpolkcou1880unio/page/419 419], 425}}</ref> This brought the number of counties in the Iowa Territory to 22.

By the end of 1846, the territory had been accepted into the Union as the State of Iowa (December 28, 1846). By 1851, the new state had grown to the extent that the original 22 counties needed to be divided into smaller, more accessible units. Accordingly, on January 15, 1851, the [[Iowa General Assembly]] enacted an omnibus bill which created 43 new counties<ref>The new counties: Adair, Adams, Audubon, Bremer, Buena Vista, Butler, Calhoun, Carroll, Cass, Cerro Gordo, Cherokee, Chickasaw, Clay, Crawford, Dickinson, Emmet, Floyd, Franklin, Greene, Grundy, Hancock, Hardin, Harrison, Howard, Ida, Kossuth, Lyon, Mills, Mitchell, Monona, Montgomery, O'Brien, Osceola, Palo Alto, Plymouth, Pocahontas, Sac, Shelby, Sioux, Union, Winnebago, Worth, Wright.</ref> by reducing the previous counties. Sac County was named after the [[Sauk people]], at that time called the Sac Indians.

It took some time for the new organization to fully function. Sac City was designated the county seat in 1856, and construction of the first county courthouse was complete in 1862. By 1873 the burgeoning population had outgrown that structure<ref name=HSC/> and a larger (85 x 56 feet brick) building was authorized to replace it.

The new courthouse, complete with impressive bell tower, was placed in service in January 1874, and was used until 1888 when it burned.<ref>In the jail attached to the courthouse, an inmate attempted escape by starting a fire. The ensuing conflagration destroyed the entire structure.</ref>

To replace that structure, the [[Sac County Courthouse|present courthouse]] was built. It was enlarged and remodeled in the 1980s.<ref name="HSC">{{cite web|url=http://www.saccity.org/pages/historic-sac-city.html|title=Historic Sac City|publisher=Chamber Main Street|access-date=February 26, 2010|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101129101950/http://saccity.org/pages/historic-sac-city.html|archive-date=November 29, 2010}}</ref>

==Politics==
The Democrats have only carried Sac County a total of 5 times since 1912: 1932 and 1936 by [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]], 1948 by [[Harry S. Truman]], 1964 by [[Lyndon B. Johnson]], and 1988 by [[Michael Dukakis]]. Most of these in Democratic landslides, with 1988 being the notable big exception as Dukakis overperformed here, as he had almost everywhere else in Iowa, due to the farm crisis of the 1980s.
