VICTOR MARX SHATTERS FUNDRAISING MILESTONE RAISING OVER $2 MILLION FROM ALL 64 COLORADO COUNTIES

Broad grassroots support reflects the coalition needed

to win in November

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

April 17, 2026

(COLORADO SPRINGS, CO) — The Victor Marx campaign today announced a significant milestone: more than $2 million raised in contributions since October 1, 2025, with donors from every single one of Colorado's 64 counties.

This milestone is not just a fundraising number. It reflects where this campaign stands with everyday Coloradans.

With an average donation of $107.42 and a median gift of $52, the numbers tell the story of a movement powered by working Coloradans across the state. This strong support, from ranchers on the Western Slope to families on the Front Range to communities across rural Colorado, points to something real: people from very different walks of life choosing to invest in this campaign.

"This is Colorado speaking," said Victor Marx. "From Colorado Springs to Grand Junction, from Pueblo to Fort Collins, people are investing in a future built on secure communities, common sense leadership, government accountability, strong infrastructure, and a return to affordability. I am humbled and energized by every single one of these contributions."

This fundraising milestone comes on the heels of meaningful campaign momentum, including more than 28,000 petition signatures gathered entirely by volunteers and a strong finish at the Colorado GOP Assembly.

Since October 1, 2025, the campaign has been powered by grassroots donors, not dependent on a handful of large contributors. The data tells the story:

·      Average donation: $107.42 with a median gift of just $52, showing participation at every income level

·      $27,562 in recurring monthly donations from supporters committed for the long haul

·      7,883 in-state donors representing 75.3% of all contributions, a genuinely Colorado-funded campaign

·      $103,000 in merchandise sales. Supporters aren't just writing checks, they're wearing their conviction

Support is not concentrated in one region. It reflects engagement in the key population centers that determine statewide elections, as well as strong participation in rural Colorado. Communities across the map are represented:

1. Colorado Springs – 1,048 donors

2. Littleton – 488 donors

3. Denver – 346 donors

4. Aurora – 272 donors

5. Castle Rock – 243 donors

6. Parker – 219 donors

7. Arvada – 218 donors

8. Pueblo – 181 donors

9. Fort Collins – 172 donors

10. Grand Junction – 169 donors

11. Loveland – 155 donors

12. Peyton – 143 donors

13. Brighton – 139 donors

14. Greeley – 130 donors

15. Lakewood – 129 donors

This campaign is building the statewide coalition needed to reach and persuade the more than 600,000 Colorado voters expected to participate in the Republican primary. While other campaigns rely on narrower donor bases or established political networks, this campaign has been funded by thousands of individual Coloradans across all 64 counties, the kind of broad coalition that statewide campaigns require.

Winning Colorado demands that kind of reach. This campaign has been working to build it from day one.

A candidate's ability to generate grassroots financial support in a primary is often a reliable indicator of their capacity to compete statewide in November. The breadth of support behind this campaign reflects that the message is resonating, not just in strongholds, but across the map.

This momentum will now be focused on direct voter engagement across the state, ensuring that every supporter becomes a vote in the primary.

Victor Marx is a Marine veteran, author, and mentor who has spent decades serving communities across America and overseas. His campaign for Colorado Governor is grounded in the belief that every Coloradan deserves safe neighborhoods, accountable government, reliable infrastructure, and a state where hardworking families can once again afford to live and thrive.

This $2 million milestone is not the peak. It is the foundation for winning the Republican primary and building a campaign capable of winning in November.
