Marc Victor Already Planning to Run Against Kyrsten Sinema



Democratic Congresswoman Kyrsten Sinema has been in Congress for a little more than six weeks now, but libertarian-minded attorney Marc Victor is already planning to defeat her in 2014.

We've heard from his campaign that Victor, who ran as the Libertarian option against Richard Carmona and then-Congressman Jeff Flake in the recent Senate election, will be running as a Republican.

"Marc is very serious about winning this time and has a very good shot at doing so," according to his campaign. "He has been in contact with Ron Paul and running as a Republican can expect help from Ron with the campaign."

That's a bit of a different tone than Victor used in his bid for Senate, in which he pulled in about 4.5 percent of the votes.

"I don't care what people do with their votes," Victor told New Times during the campaign, after a pro-Flake Super PAC claimed a vote for Victor was really a vote for Carmona. "I'm just promoting freedom."

Obviously, running as a Libertarian, Victor knew his odds of winning were just about zero, and starting out this campaign with the Ron Paul information, it doesn't look like Victor's abandoning the libertarian message.

Victor, an honorably discharged Marine, is also an attorney, and we've noted a couple of the successes he's had of late.

Victor actually announced his run for Senate last summer, about a week after defending a client who was found not guilty of transporting 83 pounds of marijuana from Douglas to Phoenix.

Then, just weeks before the election, Victor was a bit busy as he was defending Elizabeth Johnson, the mother of "Baby Gabriel."

Johnson was facing a kidnapping charge in the trial, but a jury ended up finding her guilty of the lesser charge of unlawful imprisonment.

That said, it looks like Victor's actually going to take a shot at winning the election this time, running as a Republican. Of course, to get to Sinema, Victor would have to win that Republican primary -- which was a seven-way race last year.

Vernon Parker won that primary race, but ended up losing to Sinema by about four percentage points.

I AM A PEACEFUL AR-15 ASSAULT RIFLE OWNER



Who Really Needs an Assault Rifle?

I am an American. As such, none of my rights depend on a showing of need. I am a free man who has the right to define and pursue my happiness any peaceful way I see fit. The government does not grant me rights. I was born free. The legitimate role of government is to act as my agent to protect my rights; which exist independent of government. Americans do not beg the government for rights nor are they required to demonstrate a “need” for rights.

Marc Victor to be in the Senate Debate



Wednesday, October 10th – in a U.S. Senate debate on Eight’s public affairs program, Arizona Horizon.

The hour-long debate airs live at 5pm and repeats at 10pm on Eight HD (8.1).  KUAT (Arizona Public Media) in Tucson has expressed interest in airing this debate to ensure statewide coverage.

DEBATE FORMAT & ADDITIONAL DETAILS
Each candidate will have a one-minute opening and closing statement (the order to be determined by a drawing just prior to the start of the debate). The balance of the half-hour program will be dedicated to a discussion moderated by Arizona Horizon host, Ted Simons. As with all of Arizona Horizon’s debates, this is not a formal exercise.  It’s an open exchange of ideas, an opportunity for give and take between the candidates.  As such, interjections and even interruptions are allowed provided that all sides get a fair shake.  We’ll do our best to make sure that happens.
C-Span will also be recording the debate for airing on its station.

Hi Marc,

I just read your article “Not Guilty on 83 lbs. of Marijuana and Still No Justice”.
You deserve a standing ovation!

Not only for winning the case, but for educating the jury in their power to serve as the people’s check against governmental tyranny.

Doug Casey calls Marc Victor “Ron Paul on Steroids”



“There’s great danger in having the government do anything, quite frankly. But it could be better if more people like Ron Paul or my friend Marc Victor were in office. Check out Victor; he has the potential to be the next Ron Paul – on steroids.”

Could smoking medical marijuana get you a DUI?

Posted: Aug 27, 2012 6:08 PM Updated: Aug 27, 2012 6:20 PM 

By Elizabeth Erwin – bio | email

PHOENIX (CBS5) -In Arizona you can get a DUI if you seem impaired – it doesn’t matter what your blood alcohol content is or what kind of drugs are in your system.  Right now the same goes for pot.
“I think a lot of this is yet to be determined, but I can tell you how I think it’s going to shake out,” said attorney Marc Victor.
Victor has seen his fair share of DUI cases.
“I’ve been doing this for almost 19 years,” he said.
He seemed like a good place to start with our questions about how Arizona’s DUI laws will work with medical marijuana.
“If a person is impaired because of any drug, whether it’s marijuana, whether it’s alcohol, then they’re going to have a problem under the DUI law,” Victor said.
Arizona’s DUI law has a couple different parts.  One we’re all familiar with said if your driving is impaired you’re probably going to get a DUI.  But there’s another part you might not know about.
“People don’t understand this section. Merely the fact that it’s in your system, without any impairment at all, which means you could be perfectly safe driving down the road, not a danger to anyone at all and yet still a violation,” Victor said.
Marijuana can stay in your system for days, meaning if you smoked Monday you could still get a DUI that weekend. That means even if you can legally smoke pot, you legally can’t drive.
“The way I believe this is going to shake out is if the person is a qualifying patient and they have a card to use marijuana, then I think and I suspect in order to harmonize the provisions of our new law with the provisions of our old law that the courts are ultimately going to say that it’s a free pass,” Victor said.
