Uh oh…
It appears that Clayton Tucker DOES NOT meet the legal qualifications to run for Ag Commissioner under Texas law! I’m no lawyer, but I think I just smothered his candidacy in the crib.
Before you dummy shitlibs donate your $25 to Clayton Tucker’s latest grift, you might want to read this…
Only numbers 1 and 3 could possibly apply. So we will focus on those.
He has demonstrably never “owned” anything, so he needs to hope he can prove he “operated” something or “engaged in business” somehow.
The “last 10 years preceding” election year means the years 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017 and 2016. Comrade Clayton has to prove he was “engaged in the business of agriculture” for at LEAST 5 of those 10 years.
Seeing as how Comrade Clayton HIMSELF admitted he was a “political organizer” and NOT a rancher when he ran for Lampasas City council in May of 2021….
….AND there are numerous photos of him as a full-on Bernie Bro acolyte and “organizer” for Our Revolution all through 2018, 2019, etc…
…AND he didn’t bother to register RX Ranch as an actual business until December of 2023…
…it’s going to be VERY HARD indeed to say you were a “rancher” for five of those years. Indeed, the City council admission ALONE in 2021 means (if we are generous and assume you became a ‘rancher’ IMMEDIATELY after you got your ass kicked by Zac Morris) you can only point to 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025 – which is FOUR years. Not the five required.
Oops.
I’m pretty sure pictures of you feeding a few goats on grandpa’s property doesn’t meet the legal definition of “operating a ranch” lol.
Throw in the total lack of W2s, business records, tax records, employees, grandpa’s name on the property, etc and it will be VERY easy for a pro like Sid Miller to shred your ass into coleslaw over this in court.
At best, you are just a kid who lives with mom and occasionally farts around on grandpa’s land. That’s called a “hobby” in the eyes of the IRS. Not a “business.”
Too bad, Comrade. I was looking forward to 18 months of tearing your campaign to shreds.
**UPDATE * 8 HOURS LATER: You know that Comrade Clayton has been on the phone with Jim Hightower panicking over this for the last five hours. Then he went to his 94-year-old Meemaw and tried to convince her to backdate a farm deed to 2016. LOL. Fucking loser.
