About Drexell R. Davis
- Drexell R.
- Davis (July 19, 1921 – December 16, 2009) was a Democrat who held several elected offices in Kentucky.
- He was born in Shelby County, Kentucky. For 100 years (1891–1992) the Kentucky Constitution did not allow any holder of statewide office to succeed themselves for a second consecutive term.
- As a result, a handful of Kentucky politicians became known as "musical chairs" officeholders because they would run for one statewide office and then another repeatedly.
- Thelma Stovall, Frances Jones Mills and Drex Davis were the best known musical chairs officeholders.
- The three often traded offices in given election years through the 1970s and 1980s.
