County government in Nebraska

County government in Nebraska is organized in one of two models:
 * Township counties: the county is subdivided into organized townships and governed by a 7-member board of supervisors. This is the form used by 27 counties.
 * Commissioner counties: the county is governed by a 3-, 5- or 7-member board of commissioners, but is not subdivided into organized townships. This is the form used by 66 counties.

Elected county officials

 * Board of Commissioners (commissioner counties) or Board of Supervisors (township counties)
 * County assessor
 * County attorney
 * County clerk
 * County sheriff
 * County treasurer
 * Register of Deeds

Other county officials (such as the county surveyor and the election commissioners) are appointed; in smaller counties, these officials may be shared by multiple counties.
