In November 2024 he won the election and took the oath of office. Greg worked alongside the founders of Protect Kids Colorado. He will fight against the sex change/mutilation of minors. He is opposed to biological males in female sports. He is a true public servant and will be accountable to, and will serve WE THE PEOPLE, not the big money donors.

GOP SECRETARY ENDORSEMENT: Colorado Politics Article

Victor Marx

Facts:

  • Claims to be Republican
  • Has no experience in legislating or what is needed to govern
  • His experience is in drawing people to donate money and has the ability to deceive people much like Kenneth Copeland, Joel Osteen, Jim Bakker and others.
  • Refuses to attend or participate in town hall meetings or debates unless he dictates the terms
  • Does not respond to emails and avoids questions, especially difficult ones.
  • Runs away from conflict and denigrates people who question his character or what he would bring to the office.
  • The above is who he is and how he would govern
  • Is alleged to have committed domestic abuse (info available on YouTube).
  • Petitioned onto the ballot to ensure he will be on the Primary Ballot (rather than only submitting to the Delegates). He didn’t trust the elected Delegates at the assembly, so he petitioned on the ballot to guarantee a spot on the primary ballot.
  • Has some very questionable campaign contributions and activities on Tracer. He is swimming in dark money and appears to be the "Papa Smurf" of contributions.
  • Has millions of dollars in questionable real estate funds funneled through his "church" (look up "money laundering" in the dictionary).
  • Claims to be a "preacher," but tells "untruths" like a Democrat.

Victor Marx is clearly a narcissist and more interested in himself than the people and it is clear that a vote for Marx is just... a vote for Marx. The only information in his endless emails as well as on his website is a constant drumbeat, "send me money!" with no real content. Really wonder what he is hiding. When Marx does grace the public with his presence, he struts around like he thinks he is royalty while surrounded by at least four bodyguards (wonder who pays for them) to shield himself from the peasants attending an event. He is as far from Conservative Grassroots as... Marx. Even the establishment wants nothing to do with him because of who he really is. The two other primary candidates (Grassroots Republican Scott Bottoms and Establishment Republican Barbara Kirkmeyer) stated that they will not support Marx because he is a "grifter" and dishonest (among other things). These attributes are very similar to the current person occupying Colorado Governor and Attorney General offices... and they may all be interchangeable. DON’T DRINK THE KOOL-AID!

Phil Weiser

Facts:

  • Radical Liberal Democrat
  • Wants government control of housing
  • Supports "fees" (taxes) which avoid TABOR limits
  • Believes in open borders
  • Backs sanctuary cities and state
  • Participated in the revolving door for arrested criminals
  • Refused to prosecute criminal activities by state judges and staff
  • Fights against deportation of illegal aliens
  • Supports taxpayer-funded benefits for illegal aliens
  • Opposes discontinuing Medicaid and SNAP for non-citizens
  • Will expedite the process of Colorado turning into California

Weiser says he has a "plan", but refuses to give the details of what this is. He say he will build 40,000 homes. HOW? He is not a builder nor can he personally do this. Well, just look at New York Mayor Mamdani. They are cut from the same cloth. Weiser will attack and decimate housing in order to make it "fair" and "available". It has been discovered that this candidate has campaign information containing blatant LIES sent using dark money from PACs (untraceable). He is an expert at lawfare... suing to protect and keep illegal aliens in Colorado, to allow no bail for criminals, to fight deportations. Not only does he ignore and fail to prosecute crimes in the judiciary, he apathetic to these crimes. He is in favor of open borders and no restrictions on illegal migration. Weiser is an advocate for sanctuary cities and will make Colorado a sanctuary state. He is a tax-and-spend liberal who fought to keep the "fees" collected by governing entities in Colorado from being defined as taxes. He opposes laws that would stop sex changes / mutilation on minors as well as keeping biological males out of female sports / activities and safe places and also believes state tax dollars should fund these. Not only is Weiser extremely bad for Colorado, he should never hold ANY office anywhere.
