Matt Blunt, former Missouri Governor:
“Missourians need an Attorney General who will respect our state’s constitution, ensure that politics never overshadow the rule of law and stand up for our shared Missouri values. Ed Martin will bring these qualities combined with tremendous integrity and an unmatched work ethic to the Attorney General’s office. It is a pleasure to
support Ed Martin and to endorse his campaign to be Missouri’s next Attorney General.”
US Senator Roy Blunt:
“I’ve had the chance to work with Ed over the course of many years, and during that time, I’ve always been impressed by his unwavering commitment to smaller government and fiscal responsibility. Those values are especially important today, as our state and our nation continue to struggle to jumpstart private sector job creation and rein in out-of-control government spending. I believe Ed Martin represents the kind of fiscally conservative leader who we need in Missouri, and that’s why I’m proud to endorse his candidacy for Attorney General.”
Jim Talent, former US Senator:
“Ed Martin will be a superb Attorney General for Missouri. Ed has the integrity, energy and judgment to serve our state well as its chief legal officer. I enthusiastically support Ed Martin’s campaign and am encouraging Missourians to join me in helping elect an Attorney General who will serve their interests, not the political interests.”
Congresswoman Jo Ann Emerson:
“Ed Martin will be a great Attorney General for our state. He is smart, energetic and relentless — all great qualities to have in an AG. I wish him all the best of luck as he aspires to serve Missourians.”
Phyllis Schlafly, President and Founder of Eagle Forum:
“Ed Martin is an energetic and fearless advocate who will be exactly what Missourians need as our Attorney General. Ed stands on rock-solid principles of our American founding values, not on the shifting politics of power and advancement.”
Gene McNary, former President of Missouri Prosecutors Association and St. Louis County Prosecutor:
“Ed is an excellent lawyer, a hard worker, and knows how to run an office. He would be an excellent Attorney General.”
Clint Bolick, Director of the Goldwater Institute’s Scharf-Norton Center for Constitutional Litigation:
“Having known and worked with Ed Martin for many years, I can say he is a sharp attorney with the skills and vision to be an effective Missouri Attorney General and one of the best in the nation.”
Ed Emery, Executive Director of Missouri Fair Tax Organization
“I am pleased that Ed Martin is running for Missouri Attorney General. Ed knows the constitution and is committed to the rule of law; he knows we have a government of laws, not men. Ed’s record proves his passion for justice and individual liberty. We need his experience and principled character in the Attorney General’s office.”
Clarence Dula, former Democratic Secretary for the St. Louis Election Board:
“As Democrat secretary of the Board of Elections, I was proud to work with Ed to make our elections and the election process better, more secure, and more accessible to all citizens. Ed has the reliability and understanding for the job. Ed Martin is also a valiant advocate for the causes he takes up.”
Bill Hennessy, President of the St. Louis Tea Party:
“ Ed Martin Jr. of St. Louis has redirected his fire to the Attorney General race, and this is great news for everyone except Chris Koster. “
Dick Heller, winner of the landmark 2nd Amendment US Supreme Court CaseDistrict of Columbia v. Heller:
“Firearms Freedom, that’s keeping the federal government out of Missouri intra-state firearm activity, is the next 2nd Amendment frontier. No one has a better grasp on this than Ed Martin and that’s why Missourian’s deserve an Attorney General like Ed.”
Cliff Luber, President of the Lake Area Conservative Club
“The Lake Area Conservative Club is proud to endorse Ed Martin for Attorney General of the great State Of Missouri. Our citizens are deserving of an Attorney General who truly represents the interests of Missourians. 71% voted in favor of Proposition C and was a clear message to the federal government that we reject President Obama’s national healthcare mandate in Missouri. Attorney General Koster refused to listen to “We The People” and file suit, along with many other states, on behalf of its citizens, against Obamacare. We resoundingly applaud Ed Martin’s decision to serve our state in this capacity and will work to see him elected as our next Attorney General.”
Colonel Frederick Berry, United State Army (Retired):
“One can’t be anything but ecstatic about the announcement that Ed Martin is running for State Attorney General. He has all the tools to make a great AG–smart, experienced, aggressive, strategically savvy, and constitutionally astute. This state has been too loosely run for too long by AG’s who cared more about politics and pie-eyed polemics than the rule of law or the sovereignty of the people. What a great asset he will be for the people of Missouri. Let’s all get behind him and make it happen! I’ve known and worked with Ed long enough to know that we won’t find him wanting in any respect.”
Mark and Mindy Patterson, residents of Wildwood, MO and Principals of the Cavalry Group LLC:
“Our country stands at the crossroads of choosing freedom or an alternative that may change our great country forever. As a result, a state’s ability to protect itself and its citizens takes on new importance like never before. Accordingly, it is with great enthusiasm and humility that we offer our endorsement of Ed Martin as the next Attorney General for the great State of Missouri. Ed’s firm commitment to the Constitution of the United States and to the laws of Missouri make him uniquely qualified to lead our state in this very important position. It is our honor and privilege to offer our support for Ed Martin as the next Attorney General for Missouri.”
