Three former southern Indiana police chiefs are seeking the Clark County sheriff’s office, creating a three-candidate contest for the county’s top law-enforcement post.

The race

The candidates are former police chiefs from southern Indiana. They are competing to become Clark County sheriff.

The sheriff’s office is a county law-enforcement agency. The race therefore concerns a public office with responsibility for county policing and related public-safety work.

What is known

The contest includes three former chiefs. Their previous work leading police departments gives each candidate law-enforcement management experience.

No candidate policy positions are described here. The candidates’ individual priorities on policing, fire services or courts are not part of the announced details.

What voters should look for

Voters can compare the candidates’ records as police chiefs, their plans for the sheriff’s office and their views on the county’s public-safety needs as the campaign develops.

The election date, filing details and candidate names should be confirmed through official Clark County election records when those records are available.
