Sean Tindell is hitting the campaign trail after six years of serving as the Commissioner of the Mississippi Department of Public Safety, an appointed position Governor Tate Reeves (R) asked the Coast attorney to take on in 2020.
Tindell, a Republican, is running to be Mississippi’s next Attorney General, a seat that came open recently when incumbent two-term Attorney General Lynn Fitch (R) announced that she would be running for Governor in 2027.
“I’ve been honored to be [DPS Commissioner], to serve in that capacity, promoting public safety across the state and working with law enforcement from one end of the state to the other and trying to get them better equipment, better assets, better exposure and highlight the good things that law enforcement and public safety officials do every day,” Tindell told Magnolia Tribune early Monday morning.
Now, he believes he is uniquely qualified to be the Magnolia State’s 41st Attorney General.
