- Mark Orgeron
At today’s special Quartzsite Town Council meeting, Mark Orgeron was sworn in as Council member by Judge T. Carnevale. Orgeron replaces Barbara Cowell who was to attend the meeting but did not appear. She has been accused of usurping. Mr. Orgeron was elected May 15 in the general election. Town leadership took actions to prevent him from taking his Council seat. Since that date, hundreds of very patient Quartzsite voters have waited to see their newly elected official “on the job”. Mr. Orgeron was warmly greeted by members of the Town Council who only hours before had defied his right to the seat. Mr. Orgeron was forced to hire law firm Snell & Wilmer LLP to take the Town to United States District Court in Phoenix to bring about the inevitable outcome. This nearly all at Town taxpayer expense of tens of thousands of dollars.
Mr. Orgeron will begin his duties immediately. He is your representative if you live in Quartzsite. He can be contacted by calling the Town offices at (928) 927-4333.

May I be the first from Montana to give you congrats! Ever since the Oathkeepers march nearly a year ago, I’ve been followint the trials and tribulations of the Q-town peeps attempts to take back their town. This milestone is a welcome addition to the list of successes in that effort. Thank you for putting up the good fight. We will take this country back one community at a time and Q-town patriots are leading the way. I tip my hat to Pat Workman and you, Mark, for your valient efforts on behalf of all freedom loving Americans.
