Clayton TuckerTucker is 28, runs his family's cattle-and-goat ranch outside Lampasas, and is running to be the first Democrat to hold this office since Jim Hightower left it in 1991 — Hightower's protégé, in Hightower's old job.
About Clayton
He researched water for the National Science Foundation, taught school, and organized farmers before coming home to the ranch; he's secretary of the Texas Farmers Union. His fight is against the companies squeezing small farms — he names Tyson, Cargill and John Deere — and, this year, against the AI data centers lining up to drink the water and burn the power that farms depend on; he wants a moratorium until someone studies what they'll cost. His opponent, Nate Sheets, built a honey brand and knocked off Sid Miller in the primary with Abbott's backing.
Nate SheetsHe started a beehive in his backyard as a hobby. It became the number one honey brand in America. Then he decided to run for office.
About Nate
A Hill Country native and Navy veteran, Sheets turned a backyard experiment into Nature Nate's Honey — the top-selling branded honey in the U.S. With no prior political experience, he defeated three-term incumbent Sid Miller in the 2026 Republican primary, one of the biggest upsets of the Texas primary cycle.
