A. Lin Whitworth (born December 28, 1933) is a Democratic county commissioner from Bannock County, Idaho. He previously served in the Idaho State Senate and was a candidate for the United States House of Representatives in 2004.

Whitworth was elected to the Idaho Senate in 1994, defeating Republican incumbent Karen McGee. He was reelected in 1996, 1998 and 2000 but resigned midway through his fourth term. Whitworth served in very small Democratic minorities in the Idaho Senate, and was one of only three Democrats in the body as of his 2001 resignation.

Whitworth won the Democratic nomination in the Idaho 2nd Congressional District in 2004, but was defeated by Republican incumbent Mike Simpson. In 2006 Whitworth was elected to the Bannock County Commission as a Democrat. However in 2008 was defeated for reelection in the Democratic primary by Karen Cordell.

Whitworth is retired from Union Pacific Railroad where he was noted as a union activist. He is a lifelong resident of Inkom, a small town near Pocatello.
