Sheriff Election — Walker County, Alabama
Walker Sheriff · the arena · a Warrior-basin county hires this desk in 2026 · in Jasper · Montgomery remains the capital
The 2026 oval in Jasper, not in Lafayette, Georgia, not in Huntsville, Texas
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 Walker County.
It is not a campaign. Names belong on the official sample ballot. No crown.
Jasper hires a Sheriff who still holds 2nd Avenue
Article V, § 138: four years. The Secretary of State 2026 page lists various county offices on the gubernatorial ballot.
- Closed primary: Tuesday, 19 May 2026 (already sat).
- Primary runoff: Tuesday, 16 June 2026 (already sat where needed).
- General: Tuesday, 3 November 2026.
- Take office: Ala. Code § 36-3-4 — Monday, 18 January 2027.
- Vacancy: Governor appointment (§ 36-9-17). Coroner acts until a successor is chosen (§ 11-5-5).
The Governor is 2026. That is not this oval. A chair at large and four district Commissioners sit — not this oval. A Georgia rumor does not hire this badge. Cordova is not the hall. Montgomery is still the capital.
Circuit Clerk on 3rd Avenue, not Jasper City Hall
Absentee Election Manager: 1803 3rd Avenue, Suite 205, Jasper, AL 35501. That is the Walker County Courthouse — not Jasper City Hall, not Cordova City Hall, not a Georgia clerk as a substitute. Confirm registration, sample ballot, and absentee on sos.alabama.gov and myinfo.alabamavotes.gov.
Sample ballot in Walker County, Alabama, not Walker County, Georgia
Do not take names from a Lafayette, Georgia, rumor, a Huntsville, Texas, postcard, or a Cordova flyer as a substitute for this oval.
- Official candidate list / sample ballot — Alabama Secretary of State
- Voter lookup
- Current Sheriff of record — official Walker County, Alabama, Sheriff listing
If a site and the official sample ballot disagree, the sample ballot wins.
What you are hiring — coal-basin remainder patrol and one jail this Sheriff still holds
You are hiring the Sheriff of Walker County, Alabama — unincorporated patrol across the remainder, warrants, civil process, courthouse security on 3rd Avenue, and the jail at 2001 2nd Avenue. You are not hiring Jasper Police. You are not hiring the Governor.
Read the office page for 2nd Avenue as this jailer, Jasper as the seat, Montgomery as the capital, and Cordova as a municipality not the hall.
Remedy when a writ misses Cordova
A bad service or a paper that missed Nauvoo or Oakman — this Sheriff’s door and the courts. Five Commissioners are not the internal-affairs substitute for a paper. Not a comment section. Not Georgia. Not Texas.
Relief when the Warrior floods
A rise on the Warrior, a wreck on I-22, a night road outside Carbon Hill — this county’s mutual aid first. Jefferson is a different count. Winston is a different count. Jasper city hall is a different government.
Service — papers, a 3rd Avenue courtroom, a night shift toward Carbon Hill
Papers. A Jasper courtroom. Night hours the office actually posts. 911 on an unincorporated I-22 frontage remains this badge. The county jail remains this badge.
Due process does not wait for a Georgia rumor
A levy in unincorporated Walker still needs notice. Confirmation of sale is still the court. The Constitution does not pause because a visitor photographed a different Walker.
Rights from Nauvoo to Dora
Equal protection on the Warrior map. Counsel. Property. Humane custody. A worker in Jasper and a family in the Cordova remainder hire the same Sheriff.
