Jeff Mackey is the incumbent Republican commissioner for Sequatchie County Commission District 9 and is seeking reelection on the August 6, 2026 ballot.1 He chairs the commission's Emergency Services Committee, describes himself as "libertarian-minded," and prioritizes infrastructure for population growth, job creation for young people, and attracting industry, while weighing property-owner rights against community concerns about potential data centers and solar farms.1
Originally from Georgia, Mackey attended West Georgia College and completed his degree at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.1
He operates a computer-networking business he founded before finishing college, setting up and maintaining networks for companies nationally, often flying his own plane to job sites.1
Mackey has served 12 years on the Sequatchie County Commission and cites the county's "first clean audit we've ever had" as a key accomplishment.1
