Sheriff Election — Benton County, Arkansas
Benton Sheriff · the arena · northwest Arkansas hires this desk in 2026 · in Bentonville · Little Rock remains the capital
The 2026 oval in Bentonville — not Rogers City Hall, not a corporate campus, not Little Rock
This page is the arena for this office. Unique teaching for the job lives on the office twin. The county as a place is taught at Benton County.
It is not a campaign. Names belong on the official sample ballot. No crown.
This Sheriff is on the 2026 ballot. Arkansas county sheriffs sit on the gubernatorial table.

The Governor is 2026. That is not this oval. Fifteen Justices of the Peace sit — two-year desks, not this oval. A corporate rumor does not hire this badge. Rogers is not the hall. Bentonville is not the capital. Little Rock is the capital. This is not Benton County, Washington.
Clerk work sits at 215 East Central — not a Washington County clerk, not a corporate HR desk as this clerk
County Clerk work for Benton County sits at 215 East Central Avenue, Room 217, Bentonville. Confirm the live Clerk and elections door on bentoncountyar.gov before you drive. That is county clerk work — not Bentonville City Hall as this clerk, not Rogers City Hall as this clerk, not a corporate human-resources desk as this clerk, not a Washington County clerk as a substitute. Confirm registration, sample ballot, and absentee on sos.arkansas.gov and voterview.ar-nova.org.
Sample ballot in Benton County, Arkansas — not Benton County, Washington
Do not take names from a corporate rumor, a Rogers flyer, a Fayetteville postcard, or a Benton County, Washington, listing as this oval.
- Official candidate list / sample ballot — Arkansas Secretary of State and the Benton County Clerk
- Voter lookup
- Current Sheriff of record — official Benton County, Arkansas, Sheriff listing
If a site and the official sample ballot disagree, the sample ballot wins. Unopposed county nominees sometimes do not reprint on the November card — confirm the Clerk, do not invent a missing race.
What you are hiring — remainder patrol and a 14th Street house
You are hiring the Sheriff of Benton County, Arkansas — unincorporated patrol across Centerton remainder, Gravette remainder, Highfill country, and the line around Bella Vista and Siloam Springs; warrants; civil process; courthouse security at 102 Northeast A; and the jail at 1300 Southwest 14th. You are not hiring Bentonville Police. You are not hiring Rogers Police. You are not hiring the Governor. You are not hiring a corporate campus.
Read the office page for 1300 Southwest 14th as this jailer, Bentonville as the seat, Rogers as not the hall, and Little Rock as the capital.
Remedy when a writ misses Centerton remainder
A bad service or a paper that missed Centerton remainder or Gravette remainder — this Sheriff’s door and the courts. Fifteen Justices are not the internal-affairs substitute for a paper. Not a comment section. Not Rogers. Not a corporate campus as this oval.
Relief when I-49 ices toward Bella Vista
Ice on I-49, a wreck on U.S. 71, a night road outside Siloam Springs — this county’s mutual aid first. Washington is a different count. Carroll is a different count. Bentonville city hall is a different government. Oklahoma is a different government. Missouri is a different government.
Service — papers, an A Street docket, a night shift toward Siloam Springs
Papers. A Bentonville courtroom. Night hours the office actually posts. 911 on an unincorporated I-49 frontage remains this badge. 1300 Southwest 14th remains this badge. ADC does not.
Due process does not wait for a corporate rumor
A levy in unincorporated Benton still needs notice. Confirmation of sale is still the court. The Constitution does not pause because a visitor photographed a campus.
Rights from Gravette to the Washington County line
Equal protection on the northwest-Arkansas map. Counsel. Property. Humane custody. A worker on 14th Street and a family in Siloam Springs hire the same Sheriff.
