In their own words
Quoted from Tom Oliverson’s own official campaign material — what the campaign says the candidate will do. Some campaigns write about their candidate in the third person; the wording is theirs either way. These are the candidate’s claims: PlainDocket doesn’t check, rate or endorse them, and every candidate in a race is quoted the same way, from the same kind of source.
“My call to public service came from God's plan for me and my family. It was God's calling that led me to run for office and it is His call once again that brings me back.”
“Since my first election, I have become a respected voice for prosperity, limited government, and innovative policy solutions in Austin. Many of my legislative achievements have received national acclaim and several are now national model policies.”
“An unapologetic defender of life and a small government conservative, Dr. Oliverson staunchly opposes abortion and advocates for free markets and limited government regulations.”
“A grateful Christian, Dr. Oliverson accepted Christ as his Lord in February of 1990, and since that time has walked many hills and valleys with his Lord.”

The filing reports a total but doesn’t break it down by source, so there is nothing to chart here.

Texas lets a campaign raise money through the candidate’s own account and, separately, through a committee formed to support them. The Texas Ethics Commission’s records state this committee supports this candidate — we never infer that from a name, because a committee can just as easily be organised against the person it is named after. The two figures are kept apart deliberately: money moved between the accounts is reported by both, so adding them would count it twice.
Official filing:
- This figure is the candidate's own campaign account. Any committee the Texas Ethics Commission records as supporting them is listed separately and is NOT added in — money moved between the two is reported by both, so a combined total would count it twice.
- These lines don't add up to total receipts — receipts also include transfers, loans and refunds, which aren't donations.
- Filing is periodic (semiannual, 30-day, or 8-day pre-election reports). The figure above sums every report filed for the current 2025-2026 election cycle, through the most recent period shown — it can be several months stale depending on where a candidate is in the filing cycle, and excludes activity from any earlier cycle.
- The Texas Ethics Commission and the Federal Election Commission define "total receipts" differently — Texas Ethics Commission figures should never be compared directly against a federal candidate's FEC figures.
Official records
We searched the registries below and found no record for Tom Oliverson.
Checked 28 July 2026: Texas Legislature (impeachment records) · Texas Ethics Commission (final orders) · State Bar of Texas (attorney discipline) · Texas State Securities Board (enforcement orders). The same registries are searched for every candidate in a race, and each entry describes only what the record itself states — including how it ended. We publish no allegations and no news coverage.
- The Texas Ethics Commission is required by law to keep dismissed complaints, and findings it treats as technical or minor, confidential — so no result there means no publicly-issued final order, not that no complaint was ever filed.
- A State Bar profile shows public disciplinary history the Bar publishes online; older judgments are held by its disciplinary counsel and aren't in that profile.
