Republican Dana K. Macalik is seeking reelection as Rockwall County’s Precinct 2 commissioner in the Nov. 3, 2026, election. The state’s certified ballot lists no opposing candidate. Only precinct voters decide the contest.
Experience
Macalik took office Jan. 1, 2023, after winning election in November 2022, according to her county biography. She previously served on Rockwall City Council from 2017 to 2022 and worked in business and chamber leadership.
Taxes, roads and growth
Her campaign platform supports lower property taxes, preserving homestead exemptions and planning road improvements to address growth. She also opposes additional high-density housing.
The reviewed page does not identify a new tax rate, a complete capital-project budget or a timetable for the proposed road strategy. Her housing position is a campaign preference, not a grant of countywide zoning authority.
Public safety
Macalik supports equipping first responders and emphasizes public safety as a government responsibility. The reviewed platform does not quantify additional staffing, training or equipment expenditures.
Authority and local effects
A commissioner is one member of the five-member Commissioners Court. County budgets, tax rates and other collective decisions require action by that body; an individual commissioner cannot set them alone.
Road investment and county service levels can affect residents’ travel and taxes. City land-use decisions and school district budgets involve separate authorities.
