Palm Beach County Commissioner • District 6
One of Us, Working for All of Us
No Excuses. Just Results. Get R Done for District 6. Period.
Help Put One of Us, Working for All of Us, on the Ballot — Petitions, Not Pay-to-Play Politics
To qualify for the ballot in District 6, candidates are forced to choose one of two paths:
- Pay over $8,000 in fees, or
- Collect 1,500 valid voter petitions
That fee isn't about democracy — it's a ballot tax that favors insiders and big donors.
I'm choosing the grassroots route.
Instead of paying my way onto the ballot, I'm asking Democratic voters in District 6 to help qualify this campaign the right way: with petitions, not money.

Rudolph "Rudy" Tinker is a U.S. Army veteran, small business owner, contractor, and educator who has called Palm Beach County District 6 home for more than 27 years and believes government should work for the people it serves. He is running because taxes and costs keep rising while waste, poor planning, and unaccountable county decisions hurt families and small businesses. His seven-point plan delivers clear, practical solutions to cut waste, lower costs, reform county services, and restore responsible, people-first leadership.
