Incumbent County Commissioner Jo Skidmore, who this year filed to run for office as a Republican for the first time in her long political career, has been denied the right to run as a Republican by the state GOP.

Jim Hawkins was also denied ballot access in his bid to run as a Republican candidate for Chancellor. Hawkins previously ran for state Senate against Diane Black in 2008 as a Democrat.
