State House Candidate Tucker Marcum Endorsed By 14 Rutherford County Elected Leaders

Rutherford County, Tenn. - After only a short time since announcing his campaign for State House District 34, Republican candidate Tucker Marcum announced the endorsement of 14 key Rutherford County elected leaders. These endorsements send a signal of the strong support and energy in his effort to beat Tim Rudd and desire to use the office of State Representative to tackle the real issues facing our community.


The members of the Rutherford County Commission, Rutherford County School Board, Rutherford County Road Board, Murfreesboro City School Board, and Eagleville City Council endorsing Marcum’s campaign for State House are:


  • Michael Wrather, Rutherford County Commission District 3

  • Robert Peay, Rutherford County Commission District 4

Commissioner Pettus Read has served District 8 on the Rutherford County Commission since 2014 and currently serves as Chairman of the Public Safety Committee and Planning Commission, and Vice-Chairman of the Steering Committee.


“Rutherford County’s Legislative District 34 needs someone in the state house that will listen to the people and act on their behalf, not on the representative’s desires. I believe Tucker will be what we need to promote, protect and share our Rutherford County values as well as be our voice in Nashville. I’m glad to stand with many of my colleagues and neighbors in supporting his campaign for the State House,” stated Commissioner Pettus Read.


“I’m incredibly honored and humbled to have the support of these public servants across Rutherford County. They know what you and I know, that we deserve a representative who is committed to tackling the issues facing our community, not a representative who plays petty political games that produce zero results for Rutherford County,” expressed Marcum.


Marcum is a lifelong resident of Rutherford County and currently works on community engagement and public relations for companies bringing investments to rural communities in the South. Marcum is also an active member of the Rutherford County Chamber of Commerce, Smyrna Rotary Club, and Rutherford County Republican Party. He currently serves as Vice-Chairman of the Rutherford County Public Building Authority where he currently oversees the construction of Rutherford County’s Public Health & Safety Buildings, including the recently opened Rockvale Public Health and Safety building.
