Will a Real John Marz Please Stand Up

John Marz is seeking reelection as a Ward 3 City Councilman, in Henderson Nevada. The claimant has a story of changing his domestic parties and allegiances to fit his possess agenda.

In 2017, he is using as a Republican. He was creatively purebred with a GOP, though he switched parties in sequence to be allocated as a city assemblyman in 2012. At that time, he emphatically stated he would not run for a Council in 2013.

When Marz was urged to run, notwithstanding his guarantee not to, he would not give a decisive answer. This led proprietor Irma Dutch to demonstrate concern, according to Guardian Liberty Voice. She questioned how she could ever trust his destiny promises if he does run.

He waffled on his guarantee and motionless to run as a incumbent, in 2013.

CE Reports for Marz Raise Questions About His Loyalties

Marz’ latest published Contributions and Expenses Quarterly Report was filed with a Nevada Secretary of State’s bureau on May 22. His reported contributions totaled $182,800, whereas, a expenditures claimed are $357,016.52. He asserts he spent $174,216.52 some-more than his debate has collected.

The Marz campaign donors embody a following: mixed genuine estate and growth companies; authorised firms; casinos; several PACs, Teamsters Union Local 14; Henderson Professional Firefighters Association; Henderson Chamber of Commerce, Nevada Power; and more.

A vital writer is Sauvage Real Estate, LLC. The association donated $10,000.

Another obtuse donor is Century Communities Nevada, LLC, contributed $2,500 to Marz. Of important seductiveness is they donated another $1,300 to a Home Building Industry Political Action Committee, that supports pro-housing candidates.

Marz’ CE news indicates a grant from a Searchlight Leadership Fund, a PAC run by Harry Reed. Much like Reed’s federal-level PAC, it has heavily contributed to Democratic possibilities in pitch states, like Nevada.

Marz Supported a New Low-Income Housing

Studies prove that crime rates can boost in areas where people are vital in tighten vicinity to one another. Furthermore, low-income housing typically increases associated costs for other forms of domiciles.

Questionable Alliances

Questions were lifted during a 2013 choosing cycle about an fondness between Marz and a land developer being sued by a city of Henderson. Chris Milam was a suspect in a classical bait-and-switch land deal. One of a other parties named in a box was John F. Marchiano.

The reason for this exploration was that Marz actively sought Marchiano’s financial support for his campaign. How could a assemblyman trust it was a sound use to appeal monies from a chairman named in a fit by a city?

Not usually does Marz change domestic parties to brazen his domestic agenda, though he shows a larger outlay than intake for his 2017 election, and his alliances are questionable. The debate donors are essentially those who mount to advantage from Marz maintaining his position as councilman.
