A PERSONAL MESSAGE FROM VICTOR…
This week has been more than interesting. It’s been clarifying.
From the start of this race, I’ve taken positions that weren’t popular with certain corners of the GOP establishment in Colorado. I said what I believed needed to be said. I declined to participate in political theater that weakens our message. I chose conviction over convenience.
And now we’re watching it unfold…
Some of the loudest voices against us have stepped out of the governor’s race. Others have shifted to different contests. A few have quit entirely. Some are now throwing their support behind candidates who were never viable to begin with and who do not represent the strength or integrity our party desperately needs.
That’s not said with arrogance. It’s simply reality.
We have not wasted time in forums designed more to embarrass candidates than to strengthen our position. We have not compromised our values to gain approval from party insiders. And we have not pretended that title alone earns respect.
Respect is earned. Leadership is demonstrated.
WHAT WE HAVE DONE IS BUILD SOMETHING REAL…. We are seeing tens of thousands of Coloradans engage who normally would not vote in a primary or participate in party politics at all. We are meeting unaffiliated voters and even Democrats who are ready for serious leadership. We are meeting first-time volunteers who have never before gathered signatures or knocked on doors.
This momentum is not manufactured. It is happening in living rooms, churches, town halls, and across this state face-to-face.
And it reflects something bigger than one campaign.
We are not trying to fit into the old model of the Republican Party. We are leading a new Republican Party in Colorado — one rooted in courage, faith, integrity, and accountability. A party that earns trust again. A party that speaks plainly. A party that welcomes those who believe in freedom and responsibility, regardless of past affiliation.
Right now, we are on the verge of the next critical step: Securing ballot access by petition and through the assembly with our delegates.
To the more than 500 volunteers gathering signatures across Colorado — THANK YOU.
To those many Coloradans signing and encouraging others to sign — THANK YOU.
To those stepping forward as delegates — THANK YOU.
You are not just supporting a campaign… You are helping build a movement.
We are grateful to God for His guidance and favor. Thank you for your continued prayers and support. We will keep you updated every step of the way Forward.
— Victor
WHAT EVERYONE’S TALKING ABOUT!
The Colorado “Rescue Tour” got off to an incredible start on Friday, February 13th, in Golden, Colorado, where we had a packed house filled with enthusiastic supporters.
Concerned Coloradans came together to hear a common-sense vision for our state — One focused on safe communities, drivable roads, limited government, and making Colorado more affordable for everyone.
The energy in that room Friday was palpable, and it’s clear that Coloradans are ready for positive change — NOW!
We want to extend a big thank you to Jeff Hunt from KNUS 710AM for being with us at the Jefferson County event. He was a tremendous hit! Victor and Eileen Marx are grateful for kindness and for speaking plainly the crowd with passion and wit.
The Colorado “Rescue Tour” is picking up even more momentum! Our next stop is Greeley, Colorado, on Wednesday, February 18th, and we can’t wait to return to Weld County to reach even more new voters.

THOUGHTS FROM EILEEN MARX…
Conviction Isn’t Loud — It’s Lived
Faith and conviction cannot be separated.
Real faith doesn’t just speak — it stands. It acts. It endures. James 2:17 reminds us, “faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.” Faith that never steps forward, never risks, never enters the fire — isn’t faith at all.
I live with a man whose faith has been forged in that fire. Victor doesn’t perform belief. He lives it. His conviction to do what’s right, to remain honest, to act justly and love mercy — it isn’t convenient. It’s who he is.
And conviction is always tested.
During this campaign, there have been words, accusations, attempts at character assassination. Pressure meant to intimidate. To wound. To make us retreat.
We will not retreat.
Fire does not destroy what God has built — it refines it.
Taking back Colorado will not happen from the sidelines. It requires faith with works. It requires courage that moves. It requires conviction that refuses to bow when the pressure rises.
This will not break us.
It is strengthening us.
And when Victor sits in that seat of leadership, it will not be because it was easy.
It will be because faith was lived — not just spoken.
Together,
— Eileen
THE MOST MODERN CAMPAIGN IN COLORADO
When Coloradans ask what makes the Victor Marx campaign stand out, it’s not just our message — it’s how we connect with voters.
We’re running one of the most advanced gubernatorial campaigns in Colorado. Behind the scenes, our team is using cutting-edge data and AI tools to work smarter, not harder. This means we can efficiently target what matters most to Coloradans — like public safety, the cost of living, education, and government accountability.
With AI, we’re enhancing volunteer coordination, engaging voters, and managing resources effectively. Here’s what this means:
· Less wasted money
· More precise outreach
· Real conversations with voters
In the past, campaigns relied on mass mailers and broad TV ads. Now, technology helps us reach voters who might not hear from candidates otherwise — especially younger Coloradans, independents, and busy families.
But it goes beyond just running an efficient campaign. Victor believes that artificial Intelligence will significantly shape Colorado’s future. It will influence:
· Public safety and law enforcement
· Cybersecurity and infrastructure
· Education standards and classroom instruction
· Job growth and workforce development
· Small business competitiveness
· Privacy and data protection
Colorado needs leaders who understand both the benefits and challenges of AI. Victor Marx’s campaign includes experienced technologists and national security experts who know how to implement these technologies effectively. This expertise is crucial, as AI can boost our economy and improve services, but it requires responsible oversight and security measures.
Colorado deserves a Governor who knows where we’re headed and is ready to lead us into the future.
We’re building a campaign aimed at winning the general election while preparing to govern in a rapidly changing world. That's what true modern leadership means!
COLORADO ROADS SUCK!
Colorado’s roads are terrible. I could use a few choice words to describe it, but I’ll spare you the colorful language. I bet you’ve got some of your own when you’re stuck in traffic or hit a pothole the size of tractor!
For too long, Coloradans have had to endure crumbling roads and traffic that feels like a never-ending nightmare. A recent study revealed that poor road conditions are costing our drivers over $11 billion a year. It’s high time we take some real action to address this mess.
I’m fed up, and I know you are too. We need a transportation strategy that puts our roads and bridges front and center, ensuring that every taxpayer dollar is spent wisely and transparently. I’m committed to refocusing our transportation funding on what truly matters—our highways and bridges.
When I’m elected, I will stop the diversion of funds into non-essential programs and make sure those resources go where they belong: to the maintenance and modernization that Coloradans deserve.
We can’t keep playing Wack-a-Mole with transportation funding. Our roads are crumbling, commutes are getting longer, and the current solutions just aren’t cutting it. Our families and businesses depend on reliable roadways for safety and economic opportunity, and I’ll ensure that transportation dollars are spent in a way that you can see the benefits in your communities.
Together, we can “Hit the Accelerator for Road and Bridge Modernization.” By reviving successful initiatives like TRANS II, we’ll empower voters to prioritize high-impact projects that reduce congestion and drive economic growth, like widening I-70 to Vail. Under my conservative leadership, we’ll get transportation projects done efficiently and responsibly, creating a Colorado where families thrive and businesses succeed.
Let’s get this state moving in the right direction!
ACTION NOW, WITHOUT APOLOGY
If you missed Victor Marx’s powerful message at Rocky Mountain Calvary Church in Colorado Springs, make sure to click HERE for a clip. His words challenge us to stop being spectators in a culture that’s slipping away from truth.
For too long, Christians have stood on the sidelines while darkness advances. We were never meant to watch passively; we are called to be the light. Our values are under attack, and our children are facing pressures that deny the truth. Silence is no longer an option.
Now is the time for us to rise up together — boldly and faithfully. We must stand firm for our families, our communities, and the future generations. Victor asks that we take action without apology.
