A woman running for railroad commissioner in the Lone Star State has raised eyebrows over her racy campaign video — in which she straddles an oil pump wearing little more than a cowboy hat and boots.
“They said I needed money. I have other assets,” GOP lawyer Sarah Stogner, 37, said in a campaign clip posted to TikTok.
Stogner, who posted the steamy video on Super Bowl Sunday, said it was shot in November by a documentary crew she hired for her campaign against incumbent Wayne Christian, the Houston Chronicle reported.
Some friends suggested that she post the video on TikTok to call attention to leaking wells in West Texas, according to the paper.
“I started doing a little digging and was like, wow, this is great,” she told the outlet. “This is how I’m going to communicate to the masses about what’s happening out here, because people are visual.”
Stogner told the paper she decided to release the video because the risk seemed worth it — as a University of Houston poll showed her only a few points behind Christian, who has been bankrolled by oil and gas interests.
“I knew it would be controversial. I didn’t realize it would incite the rage and anger that it did from the press,” she told the Chronicle. Sarah Stogner.
The San Antonio Express-News described the video as “disgraceful” and pulled its endorsement of Stogner.
“We review social media, and Stogner would never have been our pick had the video appeared before we made our recommendation,” the paper said in an editorial.
“It’s painful to rescind a recommendation. But this is an opportunity to reaffirm our principles and expectations,” the editorial board wrote. Sarah Stogner. In the video, Sarah Stogner straddles an oil pump wearing a cowboy hat and boots.

“I can see AOC trying this next. What will she be riding?”
A broom?
Yes, where is Laz? We need his expert analysis.
Oh they certainly are.
I’m only here to read the article.
A women who will sell her body for votes will sell her office for dollars. AVOID NO GO ZONE TYPES.
I might be wrong, but somehow I don’t think this is going to a winning strategy.
Are those Lone Stars?
You need to watch some Dallas re-runs. Remember JR always talking about the Railroad Commission.
Because in Texas it is the Railroad Commission that regulates the oil fields
“Take me seriously as a candidate.”
“Oh look, I have boobies!”
“How dare you criticize me for showing off my boobies, you sexist misogynists!”
Just let me vote for her!
Because it’s about regulating oil. They actually haven’t regulated railroads in a while. Makes sense, huh?
Well with her opponent (named) Christian, she has to go after the rest of the voters, I suppose.
Although it is only a state agency, the Texas Railroad Commission has been historically one of the most important regulatory bodies in the nation. This is because for much of the twentieth century it has strongly influenced the supply and price of oil and natural gas throughout the United States.
“ But I’m pretty sure those assets of hers are fake. ”
I hate using the term fake. If I can touch them, they are real.
Enhanced, perhaps, but still real.
I really can’t agree with that strategy, but it’s almost funny to read about the press getting all huffy about the semi-nudity then turning right around with no problems whatsoever with abortion
Seems like there’s a lot of this lately — including the Dem stripper running.
Maybe women should clean the men out of their ranks before running sexy…
Butterface!
She’s definitely creating a rise in the poles.

Them poles may vote if she can get’em to the ‘booths’
