Gaston County Board of Commissioners Dallas Township (Republican Primary)
The Election Hub has partnered with the Gaston Business Association to bring voters information about Gaston County candidates.
Gaston County is governed by a seven-member Board of Commissioners (BOC) representing six townships. Commissioners are elected on a countywide partisan basis to four-year staggered terms but must reside in their respective Township. The major duties of the Board of Commissioners include assessing and assigning priorities to the needs of the County (e.g. job creation and economic development, education, healthy communities, public safety, and quality of life), adopting an annual balanced budget, establishing the annual property tax rate, maintaining a responsible fiscal policy and enacting local ordinances. Commissioners are also responsible for appointing volunteers to serve on various advisory boards and commissions. The commissioners represent the 242,000 residents of the county.
Three commissioner seats are up for election in 2026. This is the only race on the primary ballot.
