Chairman, County Commission
NOT ex officio — DIRECT CONTRADICTION of the ALPJA 15-county ex-officio list, which names Dale. Steve McKinnon holds a SEPARATELY, COUNTY-WIDE ELECTED Chairman seat (won a 2020 special election, re-elected in a 2024 runoff with 66.42% of the vote). Current Probate Judge Sharon Michalic is a different person entirely, confirmed via the county's own site plus contemporaneous Dothan Eagle news coverage — trusted over the generic list. Roster: Chris Carroll (D1), Donald O. Grantham (D2), Adam Enfinger (D3), Frankie Wilson (D4).
