Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com.
22 days.
Can you believe it?
All the hype over the summer, all the focus on the grassroots work, canvassing, voter registration.
We are 22 days out from a midterm election that should begin the end of the modern Democrat Party.
Our success is not just getting more votes than the Democrats.
We want a complete and total annihilation, an extinction event of the woke Democrat Party.
We want to send a message from corner to corner of America, from Banger, Maine, to Malibu, California, to Seattle, Washington, to Chicago, Illinois, to Birmingham, Alabama, that the far left-wing aspects of the Democrat Party have no place in America.
From medical mutilation of children to late-term abortion to wide open borders to a deteriorating economy, we want to make the Democrat Party extinct.
Now, I'm not saying that's going to happen, assuredly, but we are certainly trending in a direction that is going to put the Democrats on defense.
And the New York Times admits it.
On the front page of the New York Times today, of which I read, so you don't have to.
And sometimes we get emails, Charlie, Whitey read the New York Times.
Look, they, of course, are fake news and a waste of time, but they are one of the major incubators for elite opinion across America.
So if you read the New York Times, you really get an idea of what all the people in the FBI are reading, Goldman Sachs are reading, Bank of America reading.
GOP gains edge in poll as economy sways voters.
Two articles here by Katie Rogers.
We know Katie Rogers, don't we, Andrew?
I think we know her.
I'm not going to tell you my Katie Rogers story.
In tight races, yes, we do know her.
In tight races, some calling for Biden, but not that Biden.
Democrats see drop in independents and women.
And Shane Goldmacher, I think we know him too.
I will say, you know, we get a lot of stories written about us.
The New York Times is more fair towards us than, let's just say, other left-wing outlets that I'm positive we're going to be talking in the coming weeks.
Andrew, I know that's hard for people to believe.
The New York Times is more accurate than the Washington Post.
At least when they reach out to you and you get a chance to comment, the New York Times is a little bit more commitment to accuracy.
I'm not defending the New York Times in any way, but compared to the Washington Post, it's a different organization.
Republicans enter the final week of the contest for control of Congress with a narrow but distinct advantage as the economy and inflation have surge as dominant concerns, giving the party momentum to take back power from Democrats in the next month's midterm election.
A New York Times Sienna College poll has found.
The poll states that 49% of likely voters said they planned to vote for a Republican to represent them in Congress on November 8th, compared to 45% who planned to vote for a Democrat.
This is what's called a generic ballot.
Republicans almost never lead in a generic ballot.
It's exceedingly rare to have Republicans leading in a generic ballot.
The result represents an improvement for Republicans since September when Democrats held a one-point edge.
With inflation and unrelenting, with inflation unrelenting and the stock market steadily on the decline, the share of likely voters who said economic concerns were the most important issues facing America has leaped from July to 44% from 36%.
That is an eight-point increase for Republicans, far higher than any other issue.
And voters most concerned with the economy favored Republicans overwhelmingly by more than a two-to-one margin.
Now, of course, we have to get high turnout.
We've got to get our candidates on message.
Generic ballots don't mean anything.
This is not good news for the Democrat Party.
One poll showed Republicans opened a 10-point lead among crucial independent voters compared with a three-point edge for Democrats in September.
The article continues by saying the survey showed that the economy remained a far more potent political issue in 2022 than abortion.
Generic ballot results in key swing states.
Republicans up in the generic ballot, three points in Arizona, 11 points in Georgia, four points in Michigan.
I'm telling you, the wicked witch of the West, Gretchen Whitmer, one of the top five least favorite Democrats here on the Charlie Kirk show.
I think Tudor Dixon might be able to defeat Gretchen Whitmer.
I don't care about the polls.
I don't care about any of that stuff.
I'm telling you, Tudor Dixon could shock the world and defeat Gretchen Whitmer.
You heard it here first.
Ohio, Republican plus six points.
That is great news for JD Vance.
And then Pennsylvania, Republican plus five points.
Ooh, that's good news for Oz.
And that is good news for Doug Mastriano.
That is a sleeper race.
I think Doug Mastriano is going to shock the world with how close that race is going to be.
I'm not confident to say that Mastriano is going to win yet.
It's going to take a lot of work and it's going to take a lot of effort.
It's going to take a lot of late-breaking independence because that snake Shapiro is spending a lot of money against Mastriano.
And then Wisconsin plus four, Republican plus four.
I am confident Ron Johnson is going to win reelection in Wisconsin, but it's going to take a lot of time.
It's going to take a lot of energy.
It's going to take a lot of focus.
I want to play some tape here, but first, I just want to say we are seeing in real time something monumental and historic building.
But this is the time for us to get more people out to vote, to get the message out, to continue to keep the Democrats on defense.
Every single one of us needs to be engaged, to be involved.
We've talked about what that means, but it's more than just watching from afar.
It's being in the arena that counts.
Now, there's a lot of different races that are unfolding here.
I want to play a couple pieces of tape that I think are highly consequential when it comes to the midterms.
And, you know, I know a lot of different people that are asking, Charlie, what is the most important race?
What are the races if I don't have an important race that I should be focusing on?
One of the ones that we just love hitting nonstop is the Arizona governor's race and the Arizona Senate race.
Kerry Lake is leading in many of the polls.
Kerry Lake is running one of the most unusual campaigns that we have ever seen.
And Kerry Lake is, in more ways than one, leading the entire MAGA movement, leading the America First movement towards a future that is beyond just one person.
Kerry Lake and Ron DeSantis, I think, are two of the most talented politicians that have some of the most serious and tangible threats to the regime.
I want to talk about that, but actually, let's go to this.
Let's go with this one right here, play cut nine.
Republicans appear, by the way, to have a narrow but distinct advantage, roughly three weeks away from the midterm elections.
The latest New York Times Santa College poll finds 49% of likely voters said they plan to vote for a Republican to represent them in Congress, compared with 45% who plan to vote for a Democrat.
That is a four-point distinct advantage.
CNBC cut 10 breaks down how they think the Senate will land in November.
Play cut 10.
Hey, Shep, yeah, and you're right.
Republicans needing that net gain of one seat.
Let's break it down this way.
Here's where the Republicans are playing offense.
Five Democratic-held seats, Republicans trying to flip.
As you mentioned, there is one now in Nevada where Republicans do have the lead in the polling average.
That would be a net gain of one for the Republicans if they could get that.
And then they would have to hold on to all of their seats.
Here's five vulnerable Republican seats.
This is how the election turned out with Republicans flipping Nevada, Democrats flipping Pennsylvania.
That would leave things where they are, 50-50.
If this were to happen, Republicans would need to find another flip in here, whether it's Georgia, Arizona, New Hampshire, or somewhere else.
New Hampshire, I'm not too bullish about, but Arizona and Georgia, I'm increasingly optimistic about, especially Georgia.
And Herschel Walker had a terrific debate against Raphael Warnock.
He did a very good job.
And we got to really rally around Herschel Walker right now.
This is a winnable Senate race.
This would give Raphael Warnock a six-year term.
He previously had a two-year term, representing the great state of Georgia.
There's so many patriots in Georgia.
So many of them are watching our program and listening to our program right now.
We have to consolidate and rally behind Herschel Walker, despite all the lies and the smears and the slander that has been thrown at Herschel Walker.
Should we encourage people to vote early?
You might immediately say, oh, no way.
Well, hold on.
There's some very good arguments.
I got to give John Fredericks credit.
He was on Bannon's show and he made some very good points that really widened my opinion on this.
And I think my opinion is a little nuanced, but we're going to talk about it.
Right now, Bank of America has just lowered its 2022 forecast for the S ⁇ P 500 by a whopping 900 points to 3,600.
Saying we're headed for a recession this year, it said the new year target is the lowest on the street.
This is not good news for those of you stuck in equities or anything tied to stock markets.
Tracking Your In-Person Vote 00:15:10
I know thousands of people who have put their trust in Noble Gold to prevent losing money and the financial storm that is brewing.
You can join them by calling their expert team.
Noble Gold has recently voted the number one gold company in the country by Consumer Affairs.
No call centers, no scripted response, no bull, just a straight, honest run through options so you can decide.
And by the way, they're giving away a beautiful 110th an ounce gold American Eagle coin with every qualifying IRA or 401k rollover this month.
You can't go wrong with Noble Gold.
Call the team now at 877-646-5347 to find out more or visit noblegoldinvestments.com.
That is noblegoldinvestments.com.
Okay, so someone says here, Charlie, why are you even questioning if we MAGA first conservatives should vote on Election Day or given Kerry Lake's primary victory?
Okay, so I was of that opinion, but John Fredericks, who has a wonderful program here in Real America's Voice, really just challenged my opinion a little bit.
Hear me out.
So I am not saying vote by mail.
That is an awful idea.
Putting your ballot in the mail and sending it off.
Nobody should do that.
Nor am I saying you should get a mail-in ballot and go to a Dropbox and put it in a Dropbox.
I am not saying do that.
I am saying, though, that an overemphasis, and hear me out, on getting every single one of our people to show up on Election Day could result in the following.
People can get busy, they can get sick, they can get distracted, they can lose track of time, they can see long lines and get thwarted by that.
Now, if you are what we call a four out of four Republican, meaning you are all in, if you're watching this program basically and listening to us, then I think voting on Election Day is an awesome idea.
I do.
But to the broader population, people that are generally Republican, generally conservative, I am not at all saying go turn in your mail and ballot or go send in your ballot in the Dropbox.
Instead, you could go and vote in person early and you could track whether or not your vote is actually counted.
Now, I know a lot of you say, Charlie, I don't trust it that way.
I fully support an election day surge.
I think an election day surge is awesome.
But here's the one logical thing I want to walk through.
If you forget to vote early, you can always still vote on Election Day.
If you get distracted on Election Day, that's it.
It's too late.
Now, here's the issue, though.
Many of you listening find it to be incomprehensible, understandably, that someone might forget or get busy on Election Day.
For many of you listening, and I'm right there with you, it's the most important day that comes along every two years.
You circle it, you can't wait for it.
Getting in the voting booth is this massive pressure release valve.
I'm right there with you.
I love it.
Most people are not that way, though.
Most people, the vast majority of voters, they might be kind of tacit Republicans and they agree with us and they'll listen to the program casually.
Is I'm afraid, this is my fear, is that in certain heavy Republican areas, the lines are going to be so overwhelming that you might see a 10 to 15% drop off.
And as soon as that closes on election day, there's no getting them back.
Now, do we trust going in to go vote early?
Well, it depends on the state and it depends on the process.
So, for example, in Arizona, a lot of people get mail-in ballots.
My family gets mail-in ballots.
We are going to go drop off our mail-in ballot on election day to someone I could look in the eye to make sure that ballot is actually processed.
Okay.
That way the ballot's filled out.
I will happily vote on election day, but I know a lot of people that I'm trying to encourage to vote, and they said, oh, yeah, yeah, I'll do that thing on election day.
Yeah, you got it.
Just by the rules of logic, it's going to taper.
So, here's a very interesting question.
And unfortunately, it is, what's the word I'm looking for?
It's real.
Because we like to think of ourselves as everyone's going to show up and vote.
Would you rather have someone who is generally conservative vote early and risk having that vote not be as secure as it is on election day?
And by the way, early voting in a lot of states is still in person, and you could still track to make sure that vote is counted.
Now, whether it's counted the way you want to be counted or not, but it's very obvious.
It's better to vote early than not vote at all.
Is it ideal?
Of course not.
But I'll be very honest.
I am afraid in Arizona, we're going to have precincts with 700 people in line.
And you might say, well, Charlie, they're going to wait in line.
Well, you might.
And most four out of four voters will.
But if you're a mom with kids and you're juggling things and you go to your local precinct to go vote or your local counting center, you're like, it's a two and a half hour wait.
That's a question.
It's a fear.
And we're talking about races that will be determined by 10,000 and 25,000 votes.
Now, look, the most important thing is to vote.
And some people say, well, it doesn't matter how you vote.
I disagree.
I think it does.
I do not think anyone in this audience should put a mail-in ballot in the mail, period.
I am not supporting that.
In-person early voting in the later parts of October that could be transparently tracked of that vote being counted.
I don't think we should discourage it because I would hate to have us lose Herschel Walker Senate race.
I would hate to have us lose Arizona Senate race by 10,000 votes.
And we found out that there was a five and a half hour waiting line.
And by the way, remember in Pinal County, what happened in the primary in Pinal County, in Arizona, they ran out of Republican ballots.
If you do things potentially early with some time left on the clock, you could correct yourself as you go along.
If you want to know what the left's real plan is for your kids, just look at how they react to the wonderful company of Patriot Mobile.
I use Patriot Mobile and you should too.
Patriot Mobile is America's only Christian conservative cell phone provider.
This is because they take a portion of your bill and fund conservative causes and candidates who believe in sanctity of life, freedom of speech, the Second Amendment, and they're winning.
Patriot Mobile is amazing.
They have affordable plans for you, your family, even your business.
They offer the same nationwide coverage as the major carriers because they use multiple major networks.
Plus, you're supporting conservative values with every call.

We got an email here.
To prevent a Dominion machine from automatically switching my Republican vote to a Democrat vote, I won't ever be voting again.
The Democrats successfully stole the 2020 election with no consequences.
I don't want to be part of that happening again.
That's one of the dumbest emails I think I've ever received in the history of the Charlie Kirk show.
So they might steal my vote.
Therefore, I won't show up for a couple minutes and put a ballot in with the chance that it could count.
Here's the definition.
Not showing up guarantees your vote won't count.
Guarantees it.
You can't be that cynical.
You can't be that apathetic.
Like, oh, yeah, well, the machine might do something.
Hold on.
So by not showing up, what point exactly are you making?
Do not fall victim to that line of thinking, everybody.
The media would love nothing more than to stunt and thwart GOP turnout.
And someone says here, Charlie, I don't believe in voting early.
We all need to show up on election day.
Okay, I mean, look, if that's the way, if you are willing in some cases to wait an hour, two hours, or three hours in line, okay, good.
Terrific.
But don't you believe it to be logical or reasonable or conceivable in some situation that people might be discouraged to wait that long in line if they have other things going on that day?
And if so, what percentage?
We are talking about a midterm election that very well might be decided on the margins.
I do not think we should tell people to go vote by mail, but there is in-person potential early voting that could be a solution for some people.
And if you decide to do that, that great.
Someone says here, they said, Charlie, I live in Arizona.
And here it is.
We voted early in the primary in Arizona.
It took us less than 15 minutes to complete the process.
And just like voting on Election Day without the lines.
Now, this is Stephanie.
Now, Stephanie, I will be honest, I don't trust that as much as showing up on Election Day.
There's a lot more room for shenanigans and infiltration, but it's better than not voting at all.
That is the logical and reasonable answer.
You have an email here.
Charlie, regarding early voting, some of us strong Republicans in spirit, not so strong in body, might not be able to stand three to five hours in line.
Therefore, I think it would be good for some of us to vote in person.
Look, that's a really smart point, is that one of the core demographics of the MAGA base are elderly people and standing three to five hours in line.
Now, you may say, oh, Charlie, it's not going to be three to five hours in line.
Here's what we do know: we know that in Pinal County, the supervisor of elections there ran out of Republican ballots.
We remember back in 2020 in certain precincts across America, there was 30 minutes, 45 minutes, an hour waiting.
What if they have another water main break equivalent on Election Day?
Now, in Arizona, they only have so many vote processing centers or places that you can go vote in person.
Is that a strategy to try to prevent massive Election Day GOP turnout?
What I'm getting at is here: I'm an Election Day guy.
I'm going to personally vote on Election Day.
I encourage you to do that as well.
However, if we tell every single person to vote on Election Day, I'm afraid we might create a log jam.
We might create a ballot traffic jam on Election Day.
Where, do you think that there might be any impact on turnout?
Because once Election Day closes, that's it.
There's no going back.
Now, if you miss the voting by early window, you can always vote on Election Day.
Now, a lot of people are emailing us, Charlie.
I fill out my ballot at home and then I go and turn it in.
Now, David says here, early voting ballots are unsecure and get counted last.
You're right.
They're not as secure.
And that's actually not true.
In Arizona, they don't get counted last, but they get counted second.
And then it goes mail in, then it goes in person early, and then it goes same day.
No, that goes same day, then in person early.
That's not totally true.
Then it goes people that came and dropped off their ballots, but you're generally right.
I'm not saying it's the most secure way to vote.
I'm instead trying to tell people, trying to make a message that on election day, we could have some very serious problems that might result in a 5% to 10% tapering.
So if you are at all worried that your friends might have some sort of conflicts of scheduling, you run a small business, have a big family.
I would rather have you go vote in person early and securely than not vote at all.
Not voting is not an option.
Let me say it again.
Not voting is not an option.
There could be weather issues.
There could be family issues.
And look, this might sound like a silly example, but we have turning point USA events where we sell tickets.
People have bought tickets.
And we always factor in at least 20 to 25% of people not showing up.
Now, you might say, well, Charlie, voting is a lot different.
You're right.
They didn't pay for anything.
However, let's just say it's 5%.
Let's say it's 2%.
Let's say our massive base that shows up on election day, just 2% of people drop off.
They forget, they get cynical, they get distracted.
That's a risk, guys.
I'm telling you, we have a midterm election on the margins.
Now, look, of course, the hardcore MAGA voters will stand in line, but that actually could paradoxically have a deterrent effect, which would scare off potentially independent voters that might go our way.
So think about how these massive lines, we're going to be celebrating the lines, by the way, on election day.
On election day, we're going to have the drumbeat going.
Look at the line here and look at the line here.
That's a good thing.
But in some ways, they have designed a system where they want the lines because they want people to look and kind of turn around.
I'm like, oh, that's too long.
And I know that is incomprehensible for some of you, but it's the way it is.
Here's someone here.
Charlie, I'm 70 years old and driving due to health issues.
I received my ballot at my residence in Scottsdale.
I take my completed ballot to the local site two days prior to election date, place it in a specific site provided for mail and ballots, and it takes me all 15 minutes.
It's secure.
Parking is easier than election day.
Early morning is least busy.
Check with the county site to confirm the ballot is received and counted and done.
Kathy from Arizona.
Now, my own preference is election day all the way.
I'm going to wait in line.
And if that means I'm late for our show on election day, then so be it.
I very well might be late for our show on Atlantic.
It's kind of a good reason to be late for a show.
I don't care.
So this person says here, Charlie, take voting day off.
It's important to take the day off.
I've waited seven hours at a Trump rally.
You're right.
You have more passion than most Americans.
How is a mom that has three kids and the father's at work trying to make ends meet in a high inflationary environment so as to take the day off?
I'm just, you're going to have a taper.
Taper is part of life.
You rarely get 10 out of 10.
Douglas says, Charlie, all MAGA voters should show up on election day with a MAGA hat.
This will scare Democrats from bothering to vote.
Charlie, I'm 55.
I'm healthy enough to wait in line, but this election is too important to wait.
I won't procrastinate.
I'm voting early.
Good.
Better than not voting at all.
Here's what I'm, here's my message, and then we'll move on to Herschel Walker debate prep.
And I want your thoughts, freedom, atcharliekirk.com.
And by the way, I don't advocate intimidating Democrats in election lines.
I think he was joking around.
Let me be very clear.
I am going to promote voting on Election Day, but I am not going to dissuade you from voting early in person.
That's my position.
I think that's a very fair position.
I'm going to promote early.
I'm going to promote voting on Election Day.
And then I am going to say that if you vote early, God bless you.
If you believe it's secure and you need a way to track it, very well.
Florida's Political Shift Explained 00:02:51
This one right here, this is a real situation, right?
Charlie, I will be traveling to Israel on Election Day, so no way to vote day of.
No one even mentions my situation.
I'm voting early.
Well, I'm mentioning it right now on air.
I'm voting early.
That happens.
It's part of life.
You travel, things happen, you get sick.
It's the way it works.
Chad says, Charlie, overanalysis leads to paralysis.
Well, Chad, you should see our 5,000 emails of people that say they're voting on Election Day, which I'm just a little bit concerned that could create a deterrent.
Okay.
Continue to email us your thoughts, freedom at charliekirk.com.
Cut four, Ron DeSantis has changed the state of Florida completely and totally.
What was once a blue state, bluish state, a battleground state, has now become a deep red state.
Florida is a blueprint for the rest of the nation, and we're going to make Arizona next.
Play cut four.
Well, here's what's happened.
When I got elected governor in November of 2018, there were close to 300,000 more registered Democrats in the state of Florida than Republicans.
And prior to me becoming governor, we had never in Florida history had more registered Republicans than registered Democrats.
Well, the books are closed for November's election, so the registration deadline has passed.
And I can report that we now have over 300,000 more registered Republicans than Democrats.
300,000 new Republicans and Democrats.
And what has Ron DeSantis done?
He's exhibited courage via leadership or leadership via courage.
I'm sorry.
He has resisted lockdowns, stood up against Fauci, stood up against Biden.
He has a great surgeon general who we have on the program coming up later this week.
I think tomorrow.
Ron DeSantis has signed incredible voter integrity laws and regulations.
Ron DeSantis has banned CRT from schools.
Ron DeSantis went after Disney.
Ron DeSantis sent illegals to Martha's Vineyard.
Ron DeSantis is probably going to win the Florida governor's race by eight to 10 points.
Ron DeSantis is a freedom lover.
He's a liberty defender.
And what's amazing, and it goes against every single Republican consultant, every single one, which is he's actually expanded the pie.
He has broadened the base.
Ron DeSantis has widened the door for Republicans to be able to go through.
He's against lockdowns, against mandates.
But you think about it, Republican consultants think there's only so many voters you can get.
Ron DeSantis has proven that not to be true.
Protecting Future Generations 00:07:42
You can be bold and courageous, clear in why you believe what you believe, and you can get more popular along the way.
You can get more support.
You can get a larger following.
That's Ron DeSantis, where you now have 300,000 new voters, Republican voters.
I'm sorry, no, 300,000 more, more registered Republicans than Democrats.
I think it's going to be a very, very good November in Florida.
That's good for Ana Paulina.
That's going to be good for Marco.
Marco's going to win by 10 points.
It's great trends right now.
All right, I want to get into Herschel Walker in a second.
And by the way, you expand the pie by fighting the culture war boldly and courageously, not hiding from it.
When you lean into the controversial issues with wisdom and courage, you expand your political base.
Let me ask you this: Do you know the real story of George Floyd?
Look, we know about BLM, the organization, not the movement.
Used Floyd's name to raise $90 million.
But where did all the money go?
Well, we finally have answers because Candace Owens interviewed the people who were closest to George Floyd and uncovered the parts the media will never tell you.
I am so excited to see this.
The great Candace Owens, who, by the way, is doing some stops with us at Turning Point USA.
We're honored to have that.
She has the new documentary, The Greatest Lie Ever Sold, and it will bring all the answers to light.
Candace, she went there.
She went to Minneapolis to the scene of the violent, racially divided aftermath that tore our beautiful country apart.
And she followed the money to uncover BLM's executives living in million-dollar mansions.
Well, that's only the beginning of where the money has gone.
You'll be disturbed by how the $90 million worth of well-meaning donor funds have been used.
If you want to hear the reality and not the narrative, you need to see this movie.

Check it out.
Craig emailed us.
I'm listening to your show driving through South Carolina.
I'm a truck driver who lives in Georgia.
I want to remind you and your audience that millions of us truck drivers are working nearly 24/7 in order for us to vote on election day that would require more than one day of vacation and would shut down the entire country.
I'll be utilizing the weekend early voting in person.
God bless you, Craig.
It's better for you to vote and vote prudently in person than not vote at all.
That's a great example of someone who is a MAGA conservative, loves his country, and he's going to do, he's going to vote.
I don't think anyone in the audience thinks that he's making the wrong decision.
He can't.
He can't take off work.
David, elderly, disabled do not need to wait in line in Georgia.
Tell people to check out their local election rules.
In Georgia, voters 75 and older or those with a disability who show up on polling site between 9:30 and 4 will not be required to wait in line to vote.
Very good, David.
Thank you.
It's great information.
Charlie, I voted.
My 63-year-old husband has never voted before.
After watching your program, I told him, I was born free and I will die free.
If this is the last election that will ever make a difference, I want our kids to know that I tried to make a difference.
And the most beautiful thing happened.
He registered two days later.
That's awesome.
Charlie, don't you ever stop.
God is using your message to wake people up.
Thank you.
And we're voting in person because we're stubborn like that.
LOL.
Tina, God bless you.
And thank you for your courage and getting your husband to vote.
Never voted before and is voting for the first time in this midterm election.
That is amazing.
Really is great.
Charlie, I'm physically unable to stand in line for hours.
I'll be voting early in North Carolina.
God bless you, Lisa.
I'm an election day guy, but I fully support voting and not having them not vote at all again.
I am pro-Election Day, but I'm not against voting early the correct way.
I am not going to dissuade a single person from voting in person.
I will say the mail-in ballot thing.
I am not going to recommend.
If you have a mail-in ballot and you send it off, I am not a fan of that.
But God bless you, Lisa, and thank you for listening to the program.
Herschel Walker had a great debate against the snake, Raphael Warnock.
We have got to unite around Herschel Walker.
If you know friends in Georgia and you are in Georgia, we have got to get the drumbeat going.
We need Herschel Walker as a senator.
The regime is doing everything they can to pummel this man.
I love this one right now.
He says, let's go to cut seven, Herschel Walker against Raphael Warnock.
He told me black lives matter.
And if you think about it, Senator, in Atlanta, Georgia, there's more black babies that is aborted than anything.
So if black lives matter, why are you not protecting those babies?
And instead of aborting those babies, why are you not baptizing those babies?
Ooh, that's really good.
Why are you aborting those babies and not baptizing those babies?
Cut 12, Herschel Walker and how to start lowering prices.
First of all, we have got to become energy independent.
Herschel Walker had a great debate.
We need enthusiasm.
We need energy behind Herschel Walker.
The media has done everything they can to slander this man, to destroy this man.
He has not backed down.
He loves a good fight.
Let's consolidate the America first base.
Let's get people off the sidelines behind Herschel Walker.
Cut 12.
First of all, you have to blame this administration and Senator Warnot because within two years, this inflation has gotten worse.
They cut our energy independence.
They also raise taxes.
And at the same time, they're reckless spending all our money.
So he would sit here tonight and say that he's doing a good job for us.
And you asked me, what is one job I would do to help the inflation?
First of all, we got to become independent, energy independent again.
And the reason why, we're going to our enemies to ask for gas and oil.
And that puts us not just in an inflation problem, but it put us on a national security problem.
That's well said.
That's more wisdom than anything I've ever heard said by a Democrat in the last 18 months.
And they say, oh, he doesn't talk very well.
Shut up.
Herschel Walker loves his country.
He's trying to do something to save it for his kids and grandkids.
I think it's very admirable what he's doing.
He could be just retiring and going off into the sunset.
He talks like a normal person.
I can't stand when people go after stuff like that.
Drives me nuts.
He needs to vote well, not talk well.

A lot of people are saying, Charlie, I can't vote on election day.
I'll be out of town.
I'm voting early.
God bless you.
Someone says, someone emailed us, Charlie, under no circumstance, you'll show and vote early.
That's just not realistic.
It's not the world we live in.
Okay.
I would rather have everybody vote in the movement, all the independents vote, a majority vote on election day.
I'm an election day guy.
I'll wait in line for four hours.
But I know most people won't.
It's just not, it's not life.
You got to be realistic.
And there's people with health conditions, people with travel plans, people that get sick.
I want to get 10 out of 10 turnout in person early voting, in-person early voting.
Not every state offers it, but many of our key target states do.
Don't just throw a ballot in the mail.
Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
