Meet the two Democrats running for Texas land commissioner.
Whoever gets the most votes will move forward to the general election in November. They’ll face off against one of two Republicans also in a May 24 runoff: either Texas GOP historian Tim Westley or Dawn Buckingham, a state senator endorsed by former president Trump.
“[I’ve spent] 20 years in land management, natural resource conservation work. I’ve dealt with natural disaster funds that came out of Deepwater Horizon in criminal and civil settlement dollars that came into the state,” Kleberg said. “I’ve actually managed tens of thousands of acres of land.”is to manage about 13 million acres of state lands, most of them offshore.
Kleberg said that, if elected, he thinks the first priority should be to improve how the state plans and distributes these resources.But his biggest hurdle might be his own heritage.— one of the country’s largest ranches, established in the mid 1800s in Kingsville, Texas. “I wonder how you deal with that question?” Flores asked Kleberg at a Cinco de Mayo event put on by the Bexar County Democratic Party.
