Mark Quick (born May 27, 1965) is an American immigration reform activist, former elected member of the Warren County, New Jersey Republican Committee, and a former Reform Party Congressional candidate.[1]
During the 2010 Congressional Election, Quick challenged incumbent Scott Garrett from within the Republican Party, but aside from his base of support within the Tea Party movement, Quick failed to gain any traction.[2] In March 2012, Quick announced that he had abandoned the Republican Party and would run for Congress with the Reform Party.[3] Quick dropped his Reform Party congressional bid in May 2012, and at a news conference announced his public endorsement of a LaRouche PAC candidate, Diane Sare, for Congress. Quick's decision was condemned by the leadership of the Reform Party of New Jersey, which disassociated itself from Mark Quick's present and future political activities.[4]
