The Board of Commissioners governs Pitt County, North Carolina, setting policy, approving the county budget, overseeing land\u2011use decisions, and managing services such as public safety, health, and recreation for residents of the district, which includes central and eastern Greenville and the Eastern Pines area [6].\n\nNunnally\u2019s public record shows he has served on the board at least through the 2023\u20112024 term, as evidenced by his participation in a county commission vote that banned concealed\u2011carry firearms on all county property, where he was quoted saying, \u201cIt\u2019s not a good idea to deputize citizens\u2026 Vigilantism is not something we should encourage\u201d [8]. This vote demonstrates his involvement in county\u2011wide public\u2011safety policy.\n\nIn the 2022 election cycle, Nunnally ran as the Democratic candidate for the District\u202f3 seat, answering a series of policy questions for The Daily Reflector. He emphasized the need for additional capital investment in schools along the NC\u201143 corridor, noting that existing tax revenue alone could not meet all infrastructure needs and calling for partnerships with state and local entities to secure funding [6]. He also voiced support for expanding recreational opportunities, praising the Rails\u2011to\u2011Trails program and advocating continued investment in the County Home Complex, senior center, Alice Keene Park, and the farmers market to keep the community active and healthy [6].\n\nWhile the available sources do not detail Nunnally\u2019s education or professional background, his public statements reflect a focus on education infrastructure, community recreation, and responsible gun policy. As a sitting commissioner, he participates in the board\u2019s regular duties of budget approval, land\u2011use planning, and oversight of county services, aligning his platform with the broader responsibilities of the office.\n\nNunnally\u2019s campaign for 2026 therefore builds on his prior experience as a commissioner, his record of supporting school capital projects, recreational development, and public\u2011safety measures such as the concealed\u2011carry ban, positioning him as a candidate with demonstrated involvement in the issues that affect District\u202f3 residents.\n\n## Sources\n- [6] [Election Q&A: Pitt County Board of Commissioners District 3 \u2013 Neal Driver and Christopher Nunnally | Local News | reflector.com](https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2786783117536/election-q-a-pitt-county-board-of-commissioners-district-3-neal-driver-and-christopher-nunnally)\n- [8] [Pitt County votes 5-3 to ban concealed carry on county property](https://wcti12.com/news/local/pitt-county-votes-5-3-to-ban-concealed-carry-on-county-property)","firstname":"Christopher","lastname":"Nunnally","middlename":"William","suffix":null,"token":"1686ffa64507f9f2"},"token":"wzgwImCgr2Yj2g3y"}],"choices":null,"description":null,"district":null,"districtgroup":null,"districtgroupname":null,"districtname":null,"job_type":"county_commissioner","o.office":"county_commission","office":"county_commission","officedescription":"A county commissioner is a member of the county's legislative body.
