My Pledge

My Pledge to the people of Talladega County.


When I am elected Sheriff, I will serve and protect the citizens of this county to the best of my ability and make our citizens proud of our Sheriffs Department.

  • Perform door checks for businesses in our rural areas
  • Enhance our ability to safely work events

  • To work wrecks until St. Troopers arrive, so that you are not alone.
  • To offer in-house training to our deputies and individuals.
  • Work closely with the citizens of Talledega County on crime awareness, prevention, and alertness
  • Educate our students and young people about the dangers of alcohol and drug use.
  • Enforce our speed laws in our county rural areas, especially where children are playing.
  • Provide for effective communication with our county citizens, to hear their thoughts, opinions, concerns, and ideas.
  • Enforce fair voter practice at all voting sites
I will work to modernize our Sheriffs Department

I have effectively served the people of Talladega County in law enforcement for over 20 years. I served 17 years as a county deputy, with the Childersburg City Police Department, and have served with the Sylacauga City Police Department for the past 7 years. I have always been concerned about the safety and welfare of the people of our county without regards to race, creed, or color. It will be my privilege and honor to serve you as Sheriff.

The responsibilities of Sheriff have been taken too lightly for far too long. I believe that it is time for a responsible conservative change to this office! I represent the kind of change and fresh approach that the office of Sheriff should uphold. I will accept the burden of leadership in this position and will not take it lightly. I will work with the citizens and county government agencies to provide for the kind of leadership and law enforcement that you deserve and desire. In this day and time many lines seem to have become blurred. Statements change or are twisted to bend to meet individual needs. I will provide a clear leadership, operating under the law, providing for your safety, protection, and constitutional rights.

Now is the time to make a difference! A vote for me is a vote for strong conservative leadership. I encourage you to vote for your conservative candidate of choice. We can send a message to Washington by voting for conservatives. Join me to change a nation, by changing a state, by changing a community. Help me change our community for the better. Vote for me Dallas Davenport on Nov. 2nd, 2010 for the office of Sheriff of Talladega County.

Your Humble Servant,

Dallas Davenport
