Meet David

David Twiddy is a proven public servant, community leader, and lifelong advocate for Dare County. With years of experience on the Dare County Board of Education—including service as Chairman—David has built a reputation for steady leadership, careful decision-making, and a commitment to putting people first.

David believes local government works best when it is focused on service—not politics—and when leaders listen, plan responsibly, and respect taxpayer dollars.


A Record of Service

David’s public service is rooted in a simple belief: strong communities begin with strong schools, responsible government, and engaged citizens.

As a member—and now Chairman—of the Dare County Board of Education, David has helped guide important decisions affecting students, families, educators, and taxpayers. His colleagues have repeatedly entrusted him with leadership because of his thoughtful approach, preparation, and ability to work through complex challenges with fairness and respect.

That experience has prepared David to serve Dare County in a broader role as County Commissioner—bringing proven leadership and practical problem-solving to county government.

  • Fiscal responsibility and living within our means
  • Local control over decisions that affect Dare County
  • Thoughtful growth that protects what makes our communities special
  • Strong schools without wasteful spending
  • Transparent, accountable government
