Lyon County Sheriff Al McNeil is running for re-election. McNeil has served as Lyon County Sheriff since 2015. McNeil, a retired United States Marine Corps veteran, says it’s been an honor to serve its citizens while safeguarding their Constitutional protections and enforcing the rule of law under the duties of the Office of Sheriff. He says the greatest accomplishment is the crime rate reduction that occurred in 2016 and held throughout 2017, which hasn’t been experienced in Lyon County since the 1990s.
