The only contact information supplied is an email address, stevesautorepair55@gmail.com, which appears in the Ballotpedia page\u2019s call\u2011to\u2011action for the Candidate Connection survey [1].  Hair did not complete the Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey for the 2022 cycle, so no policy statements or platform details are recorded there [1].\n\nBecause no campaign website or additional biographical details are listed, the 2026 campaign information consists primarily of his candidacy filing and prior election participation.  Voters seeking more information may use the provided email address to request further details directly from the candidate.\n\n## Sources\n- [1] [Steven Hair (Montgomery County Board of Commissioners At-Large, North Carolina, candidate 2022) - Ballotpedia](https://ballotpedia.org/Steven_Hair_(Montgomery_County_Board_of_Commissioners_At-Large,_North_Carolina,_candidate_2022))\n- [2] [John Shaw (Montgomery County Board of Commissioners At-Large, North Carolina, candidate 2022) - Ballotpedia](https://ballotpedia.org/John_Shaw_(Montgomery_County_Board_of_Commissioners_At-Large,_North_Carolina,_candidate_2022))\n- [3] [Bill Braley (Montgomery County Board of Commissioners At-Large, North Carolina, candidate 2022) - Ballotpedia](https://ballotpedia.org/Bill_Braley_(Montgomery_County_Board_of_Commissioners_At-Large,_North_Carolina,_candidate_2022))\n- [4] [North Carolina elections, 2026 - Ballotpedia](https://ballotpedia.org/North_Carolina_elections,_2026)\n- [6] [Candidate Lists | NCSBE](https://www.ncsbe.gov/results-data/candidate-lists)\n- [7] [Upcoming Election | NCSBE](https://www.ncsbe.gov/voting/upcoming-election)\n- [10] [2026 United States Senate election in North Carolina - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_United_States_Senate_election_in_North_Carolina)\n- [11] [2026 North Carolina House of Representatives election - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_North_Carolina_House_of_Representatives_election)","campaigns":[{"contest":"county_commission_at_large","county":"montgomery","county_count":1,"electiondate":"Tue, 03 Nov 2026 00:00:00 GMT","pgr":"general","state":"NC","title":"Montgomery County Board Of Commissioners At-Large"},{"contest":"county_commission_at_large","county":"montgomery","county_count":1,"electiondate":"Tue, 03 Mar 2026 00:00:00 GMT","pgr":"general","state":"NC","title":"Montgomery County Board Of Commissioners At-Large"}],"cf_filings":[],"firstname":"Steven","fullname":"Steven Franklin Hair","lastname":"Hair","middlename":"Franklin","office_history":[{"campaigns":[{"contest":"county_commission_at_large","contest_title":"Montgomery County Board Of Commissioners At-Large","county":"montgomery","county_count":1,"electiondate":"2026-11-03","office_county":"montgomery","office_key":"county_commission","office_title":"County Commissioner","party":"REP","pgr":"general","state":"NC"},{"contest":"county_commission_at_large","contest_title":"Montgomery County Board Of Commissioners At-Large","county":"montgomery","county_count":1,"electiondate":"2026-03-03","office_county":"montgomery","office_key":"county_commission","office_title":"County Commissioner","party":"REP","pgr":"general","state":"NC"}],"county":"montgomery","cycles":[{"general":{"contest":"county_commission_at_large","contest_title":"Montgomery County Board Of Commissioners At-Large","county":"montgomery","county_count":1,"electiondate":"2026-03-03","office_county":"montgomery","office_key":"county_commission","office_title":"County Commissioner","party":"REP","pgr":"general","state":"NC"},"party":"REP","primary":null,"term":null,"year":2026}],"office_key":"county_commission","office_title":"County Commissioner","state":"NC","terms":[]}],"summary":"Steven Franklin Hair is a Republican running for an at\u2011large Montgomery County commissioner seat in 2026, previously a 2022 candidate.","terms":[],"token":"865810a129cc3173"}
