Junior Hendrickson is the sitting Roane County Commissioner for District 2, a three-seat district. He won renomination in the May 5, 2026 Republican primary with 849 votes, finishing second among three Republican candidates 1. He faces a contested August 6, 2026 general election against fellow incumbents Brad Goss and Greg Ferguson (both independents) and non-incumbent Republican primary winners Chris Ahler and Mike Kittrell for the district's three seats 12.
Hendrickson was a 2017 graduate of the Leadership Roane County program, a Roane County Chamber of Commerce civic-leadership program 3.
Hendrickson has represented District 2 on the Roane County Commission for the term running September 1, 2022 through August 31, 2026 2, and serves on several commission committees, including the Beer Board, Courthouse Security, In-Lieu-of-Tax, Industrial Liaison, Public Records, Road, School Liaison, Solid Waste, Sports Recreation, and Tourism committees 4.
In July 2022, Hendrickson was one of three District 2 commissioners (with Randy Ellis and Greg Ferguson) who introduced a county resolution to halt funding to Roanenet, a nonprofit, after its Facebook page was used to solicit votes for a county commission candidate whose spouse co-founded the group - activity the resolution said conflicted with IRS restrictions on political-campaign activity by tax-exempt organizations 5.
