In most states, a County Sherriff is a directly-elected position responsible to the voters of his/her County. Without money, however, the office can do little so budgets passed by the county's Board, Commission or however-named local taxing body provide a FUNCTIONAL responsibility to that body. In short, your County Commission probably "fie" the Sherriff, but they can make his orher job MUCH harder (or easier) depending on relationships.

∙ 13y agoThe County Sheriff in most (all?) states is an elected official, and in many states the office of County Sheriff is a state constitutional position, which would mean that, electorally the Sheriff is elected by the voters, but constitutionally he is under the control of the Governor of the state.
