I'm wondering if the carburator float valve is stuck open thus the tractor is flooding when you try to start. It is not supposed to drip. Turn off the gas, let it sit until no more dripping, then try to start with gas off. It may start on gas remaining in the carburator then shortly run out. Clean the float valve and while you are at it be sure you have a free flow of gas from the tank (pencil sized stream) and that the carburator inlet screen is clean.
If no luck this way I'd check for spark by removing one spark plug wire and holding it near the block while cranking (use insulated pliers). If no spark check points and condenser.
Were it not for the dripping I would check for spark first.
