And so it begins.
It is the beginning of the end, everybody.
It is the final MAGA rally.
We have quite a show in store for you tonight.
And our promise to you is that we are going to collapse the finish line.
I'm losing my voice.
Tyler's been sick for six weeks.
Blake is perfectly healthy.
Trump's losing his voice.
I'm feeling great, yeah.
You guys are all falling apart here.
Although, to be fair, I think I got you sick.
You got my family sick, you got our team sick, you got everybody sick.
But my kids got me sick, so blame my children.
Blake is the political relief pitcher.
I've been keeping him in the bullpen.
Ready to go.
I'm the innings eater.
He is.
That's right.
You're like Honeywell.
Blake is a 6-7-8 eater.
Not the closer.
The closer is Ben.
We'll bring him in later.
Everybody, it's an honor to be with you.
We are streaming live on every imaginable platform right now.
And I will be checking our work.
We are on 2X accounts.
We are on Facebook.
We are on Getter.
We are on Rumble.
We're on YouTube.
And we'll soon be on Real America's Voice.
The amount of authentication codes that I had to deal with just to get the Twitter thing going on today.
Daisy, what'd you do?
It's like seven or eight Twitter authentication?
I'm checking our work right now.
Better be up after all that work.
Yeah, we are streaming live.
Let's see.
It's actually on X. It's a link.
Why does it do that?
Why is it a leak?
We need to fix that.
See, that's why we're doing this, right?
So we can embed it.
Okay, so everybody, needless to say, this has been quite a nine years.
And tonight, the political story comes to an end.
Now, tomorrow really is the end, but it's an emotional evening for those of us that have been in the trenches, that have been working this.
Throughout the night, you are going to hear some remarkable stories from From Tyler.
And Tyler here is the host.
He is the maestro.
He was the master of ceremonies.
Tyler, do you have some pictures?
Come on.
You've got to get some pictures from that.
Oh, nobody asked me for them.
We've got them.
We've got plenty of time.
Trump has not even hit the plane yet in Pittsburgh, okay?
By the way, we can't bury the lead.
Look, 2018, Elon smokes marijuana in Joe Rogan interview.
That's what MSNBC is leading on with Rachel Maddow.
By the way, we can't bury the lead.
Joe Rogan has just endorsed Donald Trump.
Unbelievable.
Not happy about that.
Look at that face.
I mean, Ryan, we've got to clip some of this.
Oh, she's having a great night.
Look at her face.
It's dour.
It looks sunken.
So I want to remind all of you that are watching on the stream right now, this is kind of our warm-up stream, if you will.
Tomorrow is the big night.
We'll be streaming.
I know a lot of other people will be streaming.
We're going to outlast them.
And honestly, our stream is better.
Right, Blake?
Oh, it's going to be amazing.
It's objectively better.
So I actually want the competition.
I want a lot of the streams to be happening.
I want to see them dropping off.
We'll see you tomorrow morning, everyone.
Now, mind you, we do have West Coast Advantage, so we've got a couple hours on them.
But everybody, make plans to watch us tomorrow.
It's going to be quite great.
Let's start.
I want to get to, of course, the final MAGA rally.
Just look how mad Rachel is.
Woo!
She is an angry woman.
She is angry.
Okay.
Sorry, we go picture-in-picture.
She does not look happy here.
She looks rough.
She's doing...
Oh, God.
She is...
Yeah.
She is doing Proud Boys coverage.
Okay.
Tyler, we are 12 hours out from voting.
How big of a deal is the Joe Rogan endorsement in these final hours?
The last big news item.
Charlie, you know I've been the one that's been pressing the buttons on the warning, the way you lose is you lose men.
Warning, the way you lose is you lose men.
And guess what?
Joe Rogan has a massive...
Male crowd that follows him.
There's a massive amount of men who listen to Joe Rogan religiously.
And we know that if you lined up all of the male influencers in America, it's almost certain...
I can't even think of a sports figure that even comes close.
He's the Jordan of podcasts.
Michael Jordan, yeah.
Well, hold on.
This is a better equivalent.
Imagine if Rush Limbaugh in the mid-1990s held back an endorsement before the evening of the election.
Yeah.
Because remember, he invented the podcast medium.
Rush Limbaugh invented AM radio, as we know it.
I mean, it's as big as it gets.
And this will...
I guarantee you this will net votes.
Whether it nets 10,000 votes or 100,000 votes, this is huge.
Throw up 42.
This is the tweet, by the way.
I want to make sure people actually see it.
Because he just tweeted it.
Without the swearing.
No, no, no.
Well, yeah.
You might have to...
I think even Rush Limbaugh sells it short because he was such a, by his nature, political actor.
It's more like...
Rush in a primary.
I'm almost even thinking, like, what if, like...
I'm trying to think.
It's like if one of the most famous people in America...
Like Elvis Presley?
Elvis, or like...
I mean, actually, it's kind of like Taylor Swift.
It's like our version of Taylor Swift.
Fair enough, yeah.
A person...
But even more than that, because Joe Rogan actually is more of an...
Independent thinker.
He'll engage more with ideas, political topics.
He has earned the trust of millions of people by being inquisitive, by being fair, by being Joe.
A comparison might be, honestly, if Oprah, at the absolute peak of her popularity, if there was an election where Democrats were like, we're not getting women out to vote, we're having issues with this, and then the day before on her show, Oprah says, oh, I'm going to actually endorse someone in this race.
Gives the okay.
Yeah.
He's very Herculean in that way, where it's just kind of mythical podcasting type of a figure, and I think that's what's made him so intriguing for so long.
We just got an email, by the way.
We're dancing all over the place for good reason.
Kelly says, Charlie, we're watching you right now.
We just ballot-chased in Gilbert tonight.
We hit every house.
It was a blast.
I'm making chicken noodle soup for you.
Looks great.
Looks really good, actually.
Thank you, Kelly.
By the way, Tyler, again, we're just going to dance around tonight.
My hometown, by the way, Gilbert.
Can you just talk about the success of the Commit 100 and how many non-paid people have stepped up to chase ballots this cycle for Turning Point Action?
Yeah, so we launched our Commit 100 program, which the idea was...
Get as many people to commit to chase 100 ballots, just 100 ballots.
And if you broke it down, our program trains people to try to chase 10 ballots per day.
So it's basically in an election month, which we have in most states, it's basically spend your weekends chasing ballots or come out for like a week or two weeks and chase ballots and you can probably knock out most of those people.
And then you can work on it from home.
We had Charlie thousands, in large part thanks to The Charlie Crook Show.
In large part, thanks to our Turning Point ecosystem that we built.
We have had thousands and thousands.
We had over 10,000 people sign up.
We had, just in Arizona alone, help 6,000 people.
That's unbelievable.
2,500 of them came physically in person.
We had over 2,000 people.
And I didn't realize this because I couldn't believe it.
I knew we had a lot of states represented here.
I thought it was in the 30s.
But when they pulled the numbers, they're like, oh, actually, we had people from 49 states.
Except Vermont.
Participate.
And the only one that didn't participate was Vermont.
And my friend from Vermont commented on Twitter.
He said, well, they locked the two of us Republicans up here.
So that's the reason why.
But yeah, Vermont's tiny.
It's smaller than probably Gilbert.
So yeah, it's really successful.
And what we've done is we've trained people.
We've put them through a multi-hour class where we've taught them the basics to relational organizing and ballot chasing.
And they've gone out and they've targeted a very specific universe of people here in Arizona.
And Arizona is really a unique place.
And I think this is part of what's made it successful here.
However, Charlie, we've done this in Arizona.
We've done this in Wisconsin.
We've done this in Pennsylvania.
We've done this in Nevada.
We've done this in Georgia.
We've done this in Michigan.
So all the key target states we've done it in.
But Arizona, I think it's been ultra successful because most people are from somewhere else here.
So I think it's been really fun because we've had all these people come in from out of state.
We've had people local, too.
I don't want to ignore those locals.
We've had thousands of people sign up who have been helping locally and in the rural parts of Arizona, helping the more suburban areas of Arizona.
And then we've had people stay in hotels, come in, and they've chased literally...
We're not talking hundreds of votes, not thousands of votes.
We're talking tens of thousands of votes, Charlie.
And an effort like this has never been done before.
So yeah, Andrew, can you comment on that and then also the Joe Rogan news as it's breaking today?
Yeah, I mean, just being around all these people today has been extraordinarily encouraging, by the way.
If you find yourself watching or listening to this tonight and you have never taken the leap to get involved at this level and to really get hands-on, get into it, like take a leap of faith, get out there, meet some people you didn't know before, Sit through a training, meet some people at Turning Point Action.
Your life will be forever changed for the better.
It's really like if you feel down about the country, let me just be somebody to tell you this is such an uplifting experience to witness with your own eyes.
One of the ladies that was in the kitchen with us today, she was on break between chasing ballots.
I said, how's it been?
How's the door knocking been?
She's like, how have people been treating you?
And she's like, Tyler, let me tell you, the friends I've made through this experience has been bar none.
And she was here all month.
She spent a full month with us.
And so people say...
How do you do this?
The Democrats have no equivalent of that.
I mean, that's unbelievable.
Well, I mean, I'll tell you, I want to give a ton of credit to our Turning Point Action staff who are right now in the office putting together yard signs that say, don't leave the poll, stay in line because we're expecting the worst in Arizona tomorrow.
We're like hurt puppies.
We're in that mode.
But they're overworking.
We're making calls.
They're doing text messages still all night late into the night.
But our team has been so awesome because we've made it easy.
We've been doing the work that typically in the left 20 other organizations do.
All in one organization.
And one of the crazy things that we've done is we've coordinated this entire effort of locking down hotels and hotel rooms.
I mean, we do this for events where it's like for three nights.
That's crazy to coordinate all those hotel rooms.
Imagine doing that for a month.
And that's what our team has done all By the way, I want to say something.
A lot of our donors are watching.
Thank you to those of you who wrote big checks to make that possible because it made a very, very big difference.
Huge difference.
I think we ended up with a dozen different hotels.
And the donor program through Rav has been amazing.
Yeah, by the way, thousands of donors.
Yeah, and so let me just share an anecdote from tonight.
So Charlie did a super chase.
The team organized it.
Two of them, yep.
Well, two of them, yeah.
But this last one, there was a couple reporters there, so I stayed late.
Everybody left me.
I had to figure out how to reconnect with everybody.
But as I was sitting there, two of the ladies recognized me from the show.
They wanted to chat.
It was really sweet.
And I just asked him, how has your experience been?
And they said, you would not believe how amazing the Turning Point staff has been.
It's like anything that we need, they help us with.
Uber, vouchers, breakfast, making sure we have all our questions answered.
He said it's been like a concierge service for volunteers.
And I just want to compliment the team.
That's very rare in politics, let me just say.
Let me just tell you, that is unbelievable, but that's the culture that we have built and that Tyler and Charlie have built here at Turning Point where we super serve the volunteers that come and take part in this so that they can actually be useful and effective.
I've heard countless stories of other volunteer efforts throughout the years where it's basically they don't want to do them because the volunteers are too much hassle.
And they're more trouble than they're worth, right?
And this is an organization that has taken all of that energy, that volunteer energy, and really put it to great effect, the tune of tens of thousands of ballots in the box.
and that's an amazing, amazing accomplishment.
I want to encourage all of you guys that are watching right now.
We are doing a giveaway.
Daisy, we need some hats.
I am signing hats right now to whoever becomes a member tonight, members.charliekirk.com.
We are signing MAGA hats.
When you guys become a member, members.charliekirk.com, you support the show.
You can ask me questions once a week.
And during the stream this week, which it's going to be a stream all week, guys.
Let's just be honest.
It's going to be a stream all week.
As you guys are in the stream all week, you'll be able to communicate with us directly with voice memos and more.
So if you become a member, members.charliekirk.com, I will sign hats right here, and Daisy will be bringing them in throughout the evening.
I'm going to give a shout-out to Citizen Kane at Citizen Free Press.
If you're watching, brother, thank you for putting us on the stack.
The show is at the top of the stack.
For Citizen Free Press.
So, good man there.
Kane, we appreciate it.
Alright, so let's kind of make sure we've checked the box of all the breaking news here.
Blake, let me go to you.
Was there any polling, any data today that was interesting, or is it all just kind of muddied up the same?
It's basically muddying things up.
There hasn't been any...
There haven't been any thunderbolts like that Iowa poll that we talked about a bunch last night.
It's mostly a lot of stuff on the margins.
I think it's funny that Nate Silver, a lot of people invest in him and basically his final update is that the race is 50-50 basically.
I'm glad he gets paid big bucks for that.
That's what it is.
I don't feel that we feel it's massively different from 50-50 in the end.
We've talked about the same thing and if he's going to come out and say it's a coin toss race, then it's a coin toss race.
I think Honestly, I think that gives them more credibility than someone who's coming out here being like, it's 100% over.
I know.
I think it's all BS. A lot of those people are clowns.
I want to thank Jason, Charlene, Debra, Mary, Monica Lynn, Tamra, Jeff, Joe, Mary, Sunshine, Peyton, Susan, Stephanie, Jennifer, Olivia, David, Lindsay, Peyton, Shalom, I can tell
you, I was at that one in Grand Rapids, then we'll go to story time here.
Unless there was other major breaking news.
And I remember I was with Erica four years ago tonight, and I turned to Erica.
You know what I said?
I said, this doesn't feel like the end.
And she says, do you think he's going to lose?
I said, this doesn't feel like how the story ends.
And here we are.
Well, we don't think the story ends here either.
No, but meaning that it just didn't have that, like, this is it.
Tonight, I don't want to get too big into my predictions, but there is a finale type, right?
Guy's been shot, indicted.
The melodrama seems to be peaking here.
Well, and then with Megyn Kelly, she gets up on stage and formally endorses because of the Mark Cuban comment about strong, intelligent women.
It's finally the case that it's taken nine years, but we've come full circle.
Megyn Kelly finally understands Trump really did just mean only Rosie O'Donnell.
That's really emblematic.
So let me just tell the difference.
So four years ago, I was there, and Donald Trump, at the final MAGA rally in Grand Rapids, brought up Lil Pump or Lil Pimp.
They call him Lil Pimp.
What?
No, no, it's a real thing, and he got the name wrong.
That was his big endorsement.
Lil Pump, whatever.
He called him Lil Pimp, though.
And the guy was tripping over a gate.
I'm not kidding.
He was blazed out of his mind, super stoned.
That was like his big night before endorsement.
I'm not kidding you.
Donald Trump gets the endorsement from Joe Rogan.
I mean, just to compare and contrast, Lil Pump versus Joe Rogan.
And Megyn Kelly and Danica Patrick.
I mean, Tulsi Gabbard, Bobby Kennedy.
This ballgame is completely different four years later.
I mean, completely different.
And yes, Ryan, thank you for being our rap aficionado.
Patrick Mahomes' mom, apparently, I think.
Oh yeah.
Randy.
Oh, it was intense.
Randy.
Did you see the video?
I did not.
Charlie tweeted it.
It's done like a million.
All right, Tyler's got...
Wait, Tyler, it wasn't at the Arizona Biltmore Ballroom, though?
No, that's part of the story.
Okay, okay.
Tyler's got...
Andrew, load up all this stuff as I continue.
By the way, can we get some B-roll from that Pittsburgh rally?
Look at that, Andrew.
We've got to get some B-roll of that.
The rally he just held in Pittsburgh.
Blake, look at that.
That's insane.
It was 25,000 people.
Apparently, Caitlin Collins from CNN mentioned Charlie just a minute ago.
Oh, Dylan Mulvaney?
That's great.
What did she have to say?
We actually call her Scott Pressler.
No, that's uncanny.
Yeah, people...
Scott Pressler posts all the time.
He's like, I am not Caitlin!
Yeah, he actually posts that a lot.
By the way, I'm signing a hat right now.
They have the same hair.
I'm signing a hat.
Caitlin just became a member.
I don't know!
Did Caitlin go on to members.charliekirk.com?
More and more people are doing it.
I'll sign it just for you, Caitlin.
Just for you.
Everybody, you can also email us, freedom at charliekirk.com.
If you are planning to vote tomorrow, I want to hear from you, freedom at charliekirk.com.
I also only want to hear from you if you are bringing and dragging another human being to the polls tomorrow.
I successfully chased six of my neighbors today, and I have the text messages to prove it.
Six.
You're always sharing them with us, actually.
I love it, though.
It fires you up, right?
My favorite thing to do when I come to Arizona is to chase the Uber drivers.
Isn't it great?
It's really fun.
By the way, Uber has got to be like a 90-10 voting block for Trump in this state.
It's like 95-5.
I'm not kidding.
I have a whole theory on this.
50 Uber drivers.
Let's just say 50.
I've had two that were Kamala supporters.
If you drive Uber, own a pickup truck, own an off-terrain vehicle, or a boat, it's $95.5 for Trump.
Do you think that's right?
It's got to be a boat with an outboard motor.
There's no way it could be that high.
Oh, a boat with an outboard motor, for sure.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, I mean, come on, let's be honest.
How many white dudes for Harris?
Not a sailboat.
You're entering Jewish Orthodox numbers now that he's getting in.
No, no, let's be honest.
How many white dudes for Harris are pulling up in a pickup truck, getting into a boat that they own, with a motor on the outside, also with an ATV? Is that a Kamala demo?
You're underestimating the Scottsdale white dudes for Harris.
No, any one of those things.
I say there's something about that.
By the way, Have you heard the $30,000?
Look at that rally, by the way.
That's closing energy, by the way.
That's what you want to see the night before an election.
You see Macon, Georgia, by the way, last night?
It was nice.
By the way, I want to thank Robert, Christy, Tracy, Shelley, Sam, Stephen, Caitlin, Noah, Adrian, Janine, Mark, Kylie, Jackson, Ilana, Brandon, Jordan, Janine, Jeannie, Tracy, Bethany, Joey, Judy, Lori.
We continue to sign hats all for you right now.
Members.CharlieKirk.com.
Here tonight on the night of the final MAGA rally.
It's bittersweet.
Alright, so Tyler, do we have everything loaded up here for story time here?
Yeah, I mean, it can be a really long story or a really short story.
I'll tell the medium version of it.
Tell the interesting version.
It's all very interesting.
There's so much interesting stuff.
I know, but you got to keep the audience here.
People got stuff to do.
So the very first Trump rally, how it came to be, I was sitting with Charlie in Barrington, Illinois.
Barrington, Illinois.
At Francesca's.
I was like one of three Turning Point USA staff.
This is correct.
And we're eating lunch, and I get a phone call.
It's Corey Lewandowski.
And I don't know who Corey Lewandowski is.
Actually, nobody at that time knows.
You were the Maricopa County Republican chair.
I was the chairman of Maricopa County Republicans.
So I was a mid-20-something-year-old as the chair of the largest Republican-held county at the time.
We had 4,000 precinct committee men, and so it was a big deal.
The chair of the state party at the time was a guy who had brokered all these deals with John McCain in the background.
Everyone thought he was conservative, but he really wasn't.
He was hanging out with John McCain all the time.
And so the Trump campaign at the time had just entered.
It was like a like a week and a half, like maybe a week after Trump announces he's in the race and he's like polling like 16th or 17th in the polls.
Because remember, there's like 16 people in the race for president.
And this is 2015.
And again, this is June.
And they call and they say, hey, the Republican Party of Arizona doesn't want to host Donald Trump because we wanted to do an anti-illegal immigration rally.
And mind you, he'd never done the quote MAGA rally thing before.
Nothing.
It didn't exist.
He did an event in Iowa, but it was kind of weird.
It was not great.
He had never gone to that actual, like, I'm going to give a 45-minute rally speech.
That genre was uninvented at the time.
It was not.
We invented it.
And this is how it happened.
So they're like, we want to do a little get-together.
It was like, how we framed it was, I want to do a little get-together.
And we said, oh my, yeah.
I was like, yeah, of course.
We're in the game.
We hosted Rand Paul a couple months before because we like Rand.
And They're like, oh yeah, of course.
That'd be cool.
And he's like, really?
I'm like, yeah.
I'm like, yeah, we're big anti-illegal immigration people here in Maricopa County.
I could get into all the details, but yeah, that's going to be great.
I think that's going to be awesome.
And he's like, okay.
Well, do you think we should provide refreshments and stuff?
Do you think you can get like 100, 150 people in the room?
Mind you, this is like they were untested.
They've never drawn a crowd before.
Because when he announced in New York, it was like paid people.
Yeah, oh, totally.
This is on the phone.
He's like, 150 people?
Are you sure?
I sound like a really young guy on the phone.
I'm sure he was like, I don't know about this dude.
I'm like, dude, yeah, I can get lots of people.
I can get like...
Thousands of people there.
I can get a thousand plus people there.
And he's like, no, no way.
Okay, well, we'll see what you can do.
We're going to host at the Arizona Biltmore.
That's where a lot of presidents stay.
We'll provide food, refreshments, like donuts or something.
I have to interject.
He didn't really know how serious his candidacy was at this time.
No.
This was literally a weekend.
This was still in the experimental phase.
This was days into this campaign.
Coming down the golden escalator.
And people wonder why Corey Lewandowski has been brought back.
They've been together for a long time.
From the very beginning.
So they make this graphic.
So the graphic, I don't know if you guys saw it in the chat, if you throw it up.
I think we got it here.
It's the blue graphic.
They make this graphic.
It literally looks like it was made on, like, Microsoft Paint.
Yeah, 48.
They, like, literally, like, they took my logo from Maricopa County.
I made this logo on, at the time, in 2015, 2014, when I made this, was, like, on Photoshop.
I was like, this is great skills.
But that's, like, the outline of Maricopa County with an elephant in it.
And they stuck it on here.
And it says, free event!
Limited tickets!
Yeah.
Refreshment, sir.
Guys, you are looking at the promo poster for the first ever MAGA rally.
And it says, please RSVP to standwithtrump.eventbrite.com.
And we were running the Eventbrite.
So Jake Hoffman, who's been with us, he's now the Freedom Caucus chair here in Arizona.
I tapped him to be my unpaid comms director.
And so he's managing all the comms for this.
And we just start like...
Kicking this thing out to media all over the place.
Like, Donald Trump, you know, from...
Like, it becomes this thing everywhere.
And we got literally, like, all the local media immediately, like, please, please, please let us in the room.
And so we started working with Corey on this thing.
And Jeff DeWitt, who at the time was the state treasurer, was on board right from the beginning.
He was in the middle of all this stuff.
I go, they're like, hey, can you get anyone to speak at this thing?
And I'm like, well, obviously Senator Flake and John McCain are no-go.
They're trying to block you at the state party.
Because that's what they said.
They went to the state party first, and the state party said, no.
Now, I just want to interject here, though.
Can you read the headline really quick, Blake?
Oh, this is just like once the thing happens.
This is the New York Times 2015.
Donald Trump defiantly rallies a new silent majority.
So this was it.
This was the beginning of the MAGA movement started with Tyler Boyer.
So there's an even funnier part of this.
They asked, Corey asked, who can speak of this thing?
Nobody wants to speak.
No one.
No one.
Except Sheriff Joe.
Well, no.
He didn't want to either.
So I go down.
So I get in my car and I go downtown.
And remember, I'm on my way downtown to meet with Sheriff Joe when he was still the sheriff.
He's still the sheriff of Maricopa County.
And it's this massive complex.
And I walk in.
I've met with Sheriff Joe many times because I was the county chair.
And I walk in and he's behind his desk.
He has this big office and this big wall of everything that's about Sheriff Joe.
And He walks through and Sheriff 2 doesn't forget anything.
He remembers everything.
He's like an iron trap.
And I walk in and he's like, well, what do you need?
I'm like, well, I need you to speak at this.
Because he was running for re-election at the time.
This is the first time before he lost that first one.
And he's under indictment and everything else.
They're trying to go after him at the time.
And he's like, well, you know, Tyler, I'm a Rick Perry guy.
And I'm like, Sheriff, this is like a county thing.
The county party's hosting it.
You're ready for sheriff.
Like, you got to do it.
He's like, okay, I'll do it.
And God bless Sheriff Joe.
He's like...
I'm a party guy, and I've always supported the party, and I'm going to do it for the party.
I don't know about this Donald Trump guy, but I'm going to be a Rick Perry guy probably.
This is crazy.
And so he does it.
So he agrees.
So he's the only person...
By the way, he was a national figure.
Yeah, he was loved.
He was loved nationally.
And hated, but yes.
Yeah, but he was hated by the McCain-Flake crowd.
Well, and Democrats, but yeah.
And Democrats, for sure.
But that whole pro...
Yeah, he was a big get.
I remember...
Pro-legal immigration crowd.
And so he agrees to it.
So the lineup is me, Joe Arpaio, and then Donald Trump.
So I got to interject.
This is it.
So I'm going to just...
A couple things.
Number one, I want to put up the...
Can we put up the picture of Tyler on stage?
Look at that.
Erica sent that to me.
Look at that.
So that's Tyler on stage, and my wife is right behind Tyler.
And there's my wife with our baby.
No way.
Isn't that crazy?
So Erica is literally right here.
No way!
And Tyler met her at that event, and now we're married and have two kids.
And it all started at this MAGA rally.
Stop it.
I didn't even know that part of it.
See the guy with the black hair that's in the blue shirt?
That's my grandpa.
So that's my grandpa.
So half the audience were boyers.
So that's my grandpa.
That's my uncle.
That's the bald guy in the middle.
That's my father-in-law.
So that's Lauren's dad.
If you go straight up from Tyler's head to the left, that's Erica.
The guy in the white shirt is my father-in-law.
The girl behind her is Erica.
Behind him is Eric.
So I want to dwell on that more, but let's kind of get some...
This is Donald Trump at the Phoenix MAGA rally.
I don't know if you know we had this tape.
Listen to this.
He was talking about the Biltmore in this tape.
Play cut 38.
It's all real.
So this began as 500 people in a ballroom in Phoenix.
And the hotel called us up.
And they said, please don't do it here.
We're going to be swamped.
It's going to destroy the building.
It's been amazing.
And outside, sadly, we have thousands of people that can't get in.
So you know real estate.
You know real estate.
So that is the first remarks there.
And Tyler, understand, the genre of what we're celebrating tonight, the MAGA rally.
Anyway, can someone...
You should ask ChatGPT.
He probably doesn't know it.
How many MAGA rallies have there been?
A lot.
A lot.
You can go on Wikipedia and...
How many are there, though?
I mean, they have three separate pages because they have, like, a page for his 2016 run, for, like, the intermediary, like, for his presidency in 2020, and then now, like...
Three whole pages.
I'd probably say like 200 at least.
Oh, more than that, Blake.
Actually, yeah, several more.
No, no, no.
It's at least 1,500.
I don't know.
1,500 is a lot.
No, no.
Think about it.
Nine years.
You want me to go count?
Hold on.
Let me try to do some that.
Let me try to do some that.
Just grok it.
No, I'm not.
I refuse to do that.
So that's 3,285 days.
Donald Trump has easily done a rally one out of every five days in the last nine years.
Easily.
Because he's done like four a day some days.
Well, in election years, obviously.
But he did rallies.
Do we count the ones when he was president?
My guess is 821-ish.
I think there's been over 800 MAGA rallies.
You know what?
You guys tell your thing, and I'm just going to count literally every single one that's listed on Wikipedia, and I'll get back to you.
Trump said today that they celebrated their 507th MAGA rally.
I'm counting other one-off events as that, but I think...
That's a lot.
Oh, wait.
They celebrated the 507th rally years ago.
Yeah.
Okay, so they're way above that.
That's crazy.
The history of this thing, though, was that it got...
On the first one, they had no staff.
So this is the other thing.
Trump had no staff.
It was Corey flew in with him.
Hope Hicks.
Hope showed up and kind of just sat there in a chair.
I'm not even kidding.
Jake Hoffman's running around managing all this stuff.
I'm sorry, I know all these characters.
It just makes it funny.
The funnier part was there was all these people who showed up and were like, after they saw the rally...
They all wanted to be part of the bandwagon.
They wanted a job.
And so all these people came to me.
I was running the Trump campaign.
I'm like, I have nothing to do with this.
And so I would just email Corey.
I'm like, don't hire this guy.
Don't hire this guy.
Don't hire this guy.
Don't hire this person.
He's crazy.
Don't.
Because they were looking for state directors because they had more money than they knew what to do with at the time.
They offered money to host this thing.
And we didn't take it, by the way.
The history of this is we didn't take it because we're just happy that they paid for the convention center and did all that.
But it was a beginning that was mind-blowing, and it started right here in Phoenix, Arizona.
And the people that were there, I can still remember.
I know the guest list.
Some of the best activists that we have in the state of Arizona were there.
They showed up for me because I asked them to.
They showed up because they wanted to see the excitement.
And they showed up, most importantly, because Donald Trump was the first guy that had the intestinal fortitude to talk about how bad illegal immigration was.
And he started a movement, everybody, that has swept the country.
Well, I have another couple images I want to show.
Please.
If we can get these loaded up.
So the first one, since we're talking about first and last, show 55.
And Charlie, you're going to actually know the venue.
This was in D.C., if I remember right.
Right?
This was the first time that Turning Point hosted.
So this was not a MAGA rally.
See this front page of the Atlantic?
I got to about just under 200 rallies just from the 2015 primaries.
Sorry, breaking news.
No, sorry.
We're on the front page of the Atlantic right now.
What did we do?
The Wright's New Kingmaker.
Whoa!
I did not want it.
I disavowed.
We didn't even know it was coming.
They didn't tell us.
I don't see it.
Oh my gosh.
On the magazine?
I just sent it to you.
Anyway, I don't want to get into that right now.
Sorry.
Oh, I see it.
I had three people send it to me at once, so...
Wow, that's quite the photo they have of you there.
I wonder why.
It's not me compassionately embracing somebody.
You were talking, Andrew.
I interrupted you.
I'm sorry.
Had I known they were coming out with us, this would have been interesting.
They did this all in secret?
Thanks for letting us contribute to the story, Atlantic.
Anyways, so this is the first one.
What is this, 2018?
Do you want to say this is 2018 or 2017?
This was 2018.
No, no, no.
It was 2019.
2019 was our first travel?
2019 was TSAS, yes.
2019.
Okay, so this is 2019.
I know that because Erica and I were together and I met Erica in September of 18th.
This was at a little ballroom in...
In like the Marriott or something.
The Marriott.
Now, go to 56.
And this was our last Trump rally, producing our last one through Turning Point Action.
I mean, come on.
How great is that?
Back to back, by the way.
Back to back, because this was in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Hard place to do an event, by the way.
By the way, what people don't understand about this particular venue is, A, people from Las Vegas show up real late, which is unlike the event we did the day before.
In Georgia.
In Georgia, where people were camping out all night, and we had to turn away half the people in Georgia.
In Vegas, Thursday is like their Monday, because of the way people work the casinos.
So people were coming late, and I got into that venue, and I looked up at the upper bowl.
People don't appreciate, the upper bowl is just as big as the lower bowl.
So it's a massive, massive venue.
And the night before, yes, we had just done Duluth.
Georgia.
Both of them were fantastic events.
Star-studded.
I mean, you talk about the endorsements.
We had Jorge Masvidal.
Marco Rubio is back there.
Vivek, Tulsi.
In Georgia, we had Jason Aldean, Danica Patrick, all these people coming out.
So it was a massive, massive success.
That was our last Trump rally.
That was our last MAGA rally.
And so it's wild to see how far the organization has come from the first time we hosted Trump in 2019 at a ballroom in D.C. Praise God, honestly.
It's just been a great journey.
And I just want to say credit to President Trump.
For those that don't know him personally, he's been so generous with his time to this organization and has really allowed us to blossom into what we are today.
Win or lose tomorrow, right?
And I mean, I just want to say, Tyler, you look like you're trying to chime in.
Well, I was just going to say the first one was kind of fun.
The first MAGA rally we ever did?
The first Trump event that we did was kind of fun.
We're not doing that.
We'll do that next week.
We're not doing that tonight.
I do want to just, let's get to some hats here.
I want to thank Brad, Tanya, CJ, Bob, Christy, Paul, Janine.
By the way, we're building Mount MAGA. Can we zoom out here?
And just a reminder, everybody, make a plan when you are watching election coverage tomorrow starting around 5.30 Eastern for at least, what, 10 hours, 12 hours, right, Blake?
Maybe more?
Maybe more.
We will be streaming all night.
Honestly, what we're hoping for is probably a really short one.
What if we just blow them out?
Trump's able to speak before midnight.
I don't know.
I think it's going to be close.
You guys better turn out.
By the way, email me freedom at charliekirk.com when you are voting, how you are voting, and who you are bringing to the polls.
Freedom at charliekirk.com.
And just a reminder, if you become a member, members.charliekirk.com.
I will sign a hat for you right here.
So Tyler...
You host the first ever MAGA rally.
Let's go back.
I just want our audience to continue.
By the way, the audience is loving this.
We're getting tons of emails of people just loving story time.
Hold on one second.
I want to play more here.
This is Donald Trump here from the first ever MAGA rally.
Because it's the first one and the last one tonight.
So I want people to...
Full circle moment.
Play Cut 41.
You know, it's a term I haven't heard for years, but I was thinking about it today.
Ray Boyer right there.
Thank you.
It's a term that I haven't heard for years.
But I really think it applies now more than maybe ever before.
And that's the term, the silent majority.
Have you all heard that?
You don't hear it anymore.
You don't hear it.
When people start cutting up their credit cards at Macy's and won't go to Macy's anymore, when all of these things, and that's a big story, but nobody wants to write it.
That's fine.
I don't care about me.
But when you see the kind of power that the silent majority And the silent majority is a problem.
They want to go out.
They want to lead a good life.
They want to work hard.
They want to have their family.
They don't want to be involved in coming here and waiting on a line for hours and hours and coming in and listening to Trump.
But the silent majority is back and we're going to take the country back.
We're loving it back there.
And we are going to make America great again!
Thank you.
No teleprompter.
It was incredible. .
I want the audience to understand, everybody, that nine years caps tonight.
It'll be bracketed in history.
Seeing that, it's easy to forget how unbelievable this was at the time.
No, it's truly unbelievable.
I didn't think he had a snowball's chance.
Even in this article, I'm reading the New York Times write-up at the time.
Yeah, read some of it.
Donald Trump, the real estate mogul who has taken center stage in the race for the Republican presidential nomination, delivered a rambling monologue on Saturday, dismissing a long list of critics, including Jeb Bush, Hillary Rodham Clinton, and Macy's while rallying what he termed a new silent majority of voters.
For more than an hour, Trump ticked through a list of businesses and candidates who have tried to censure him since his long-shot campaign began three weeks ago, and he made light of their practices and intelligence.
How can I be tied with this guy, Trump said of Mr.
Bush, whom many consider the Republican frontrunner.
He's terrible.
He's weak on immigration.
The speech had a distinctly celebratory air as Mr.
Trump lauded the massive, they put it in quotes, crowds he has drawn and the attention that he has brought to immigration and other issues that he says weak politicians were afraid to address.
It also demonstrated what his party fears most about him.
That he is an orator without regard for decorum who is willing to mock other Republicans.
I mean, what I love about that is we all laugh.
Frontrunner Jeb Bush.
That was the Republican Party, everybody, before that man went down the escalator.
They were gonna run Jeb!
Like, Jeb was the standard bear that we were supposed to get excited.
And Donald Trump smashed that Republican Party and has built something new.
You know what?
Remember that?
Will anybody ever forget the, like, the dumb wars comment?
Oh, it was one of the greatest moments.
By the way, we should get the Trump greatest hits tonight.
I just dropped in the chat.
So the WAPO piece that came out that week...
It was a piece that was centered around Senator Flake, and the title of it was, Senator Flake, colon, Local GOP Should Not Host Trump's Arizona Event.
He was already on that?
I don't know if you can pull that up, but this piece, if you pull it up, has Senator Jeff Flake literally going after us, specifically around the immigration issue.
I put a quote in there that Jake actually crafted and sent over to them, but...
That we said, hey, Senator Flake should be probably more concerned about Obama letting in all these illegals over the border and less concerned about Donald Trump, who's a candidate for president.
But Jeff Flake called me, and my wife was in the car with me, called me, threatened me personally.
I would hate to see you go down in flames so quickly.
You're a new GOP chair.
You're probably not going to have much of a career if you decide to host this event.
This is in Washington Post.
And I said, Senator Flake, with all due respect, I don't really care what you think.
And if you want to host somebody that's right for president, be my guest here.
But I really don't care what you think.
Hung up the phone.
That was the last time I ever spoke to him.
I was going to say, you know what's weird?
He was right.
He knew that as soon as that populist energy came in, maybe he didn't really know, but he had this sneaking suspicion that it was actually the canary in the coal mine for his political career.
Well, what I realized was how many people did they threaten like that over the years and who stood down?
And I remember in the moment, I was in the car, and I was like, I'm not going to stand down to this guy.
I don't even really like this guy.
I'm not going to stand down to this guy.
It can be really intimidating when you're a young county chair.
Really quick, I need to say some of these names, guys.
What we were talking about with the first MAGA rally and then the MAGA hat, I mean, Benny had a great video where he went into Fulton County, Urban Corps in Georgia, and And he's handing out these hats, the Turning Point Brandon ones.
And he gives us a shout-out at the end.
It's nice.
Throw up 59.
So I have this conundrum.
I study Charlie's Twitter all the time.
59.
This is a family photo of Charlie, Erica, and...
The little one.
The little one.
Wearing MAGA hats and voting.
And the caption simply says, two more votes for Trump in Arizona.
Comment below if you have voted for Trump and named the state.
We need massive turnout.
This thing has been seen, Charlie, by 26.3 million people on Twitter.
And at first, remember I was like, is it getting trolled?
Did Elon Musk retweet it?
Which you'll sometimes see big engagements if that happens.
But you take it from the first MAGA rally, right, where there was no brand around a MAGA rally.
Nobody knew what a MAGA rally was because it didn't exist yet.
To this hat becoming so iconic.
You guys posting this picture on X.
And now everybody's posting their pictures.
It turns out it wasn't trolled.
It wasn't Elon Musk.
It's literally just organic.
Organic people.
26 million people.
Posting their family pictures of voting all throughout the comments.
And it's become like this mega tweet.
And so if you see it, if you're on X, put your picture in there.
Tell us where you voted and from what state.
And I mean, every state is in there, but there's a ton of swing states in there.
And I think part of what made this so successful, Charlie, is that people love you and Erica, absolutely.
But the MAGA hat, the iconicness of it, and people feeling like this is our final countdown with Trump as a candidate.
You guys can email us, freedom at charliekirk.com.
I also want to encourage you guys, how many people are you bringing to the polls tomorrow?
Freedom at charliekirk.com.
Email me, freedom at charliekirk.com.
Also, Steve Bannon is going to be piping in.
I think Cliff Maloney wants to pipe in, so you can text Cliff.
Tyler, or Blake, I'll go to Blake.
Blake, if we have historic turnout tomorrow, what does that probably mean?
If we have high turnout tomorrow, it means we probably get President Trump, and we probably get it decisively.
Because what we've seen is we've been very strong in the early vote.
We've often been ahead in the early vote.
And what Democrats are counting on is that we've cannibalized our likely vote, that they're going to be able to smash the day of vote with young people, with students, with young women, and that they'll basically...
Eek it out because they're going to have the more passionate people that are really fired up about abortion or whatever.
And if this is instead just an across-the-board high turnout election, I think that's where they're sweating because that's where you get the people who have soured on Kamala are now actually turning out in our favor rather than sitting it out.
If you have a high turnout election, that means both men and women are voting rather than just women.
And...
That's the situation.
For the first time ever, we're seeing Democrats thinking like, oh man, I hope this is kind of a lower turnout election.
Literally, I've spoken to a ton of reporters, Charlie, I know you have too.
They are literally rethinking all of their tactics.
They're like, did we make a giant mistake pushing for just mass expanding of voting month and all this voting access and trying to make it easier to cast a ballot than it is to jaywalk?
It's wild.
They're overthinking everything because the early vote numbers have been so surprising for them.
Email us freedom at charliekirk.com.
Again, breaking news.
Joe Rogan has endorsed Donald Trump.
Donald Trump is sending out mass emails about finding your polling place.
This could end up being so big this could win the election, everybody, if it's on the margins.
Again, Joe Rogan has a loyal audience of millions and millions and millions of open-minded, free-minded, independent swing voters.
Don't take my word for it.
He's valuable enough that Spotify is willing to give him a $100 million signing bonus, right?
Well, it wasn't the whole contract, like $250?
Oh, I mean, he's invented the entire medium.
I'll just read some of the emails here.
Charlie voted for Trump.
I'm bringing five friends to the polls tomorrow.
Tyler, a lot of people saying they're voting tomorrow in Arizona.
A lot.
And so they have to stay in line, right?
We're going to have signs.
We're going to have buses.
We're going to have staff at each of these deep Republican polling places in Maricopa County.
And the numbers look good.
So, Charlie, as a reminder, we talked about this the last few days.
It's changed a little bit today, but we have basically 200,000-plus high-propensity voters that are still available in Arizona.
200,000 plus high props.
High props.
So we need a big turnout.
But hold on.
But how many do the Democrats have?
Lower.
Lower.
It's like 100.
It's 150-ish.
Well, we don't know the exact numbers right now.
That's the problem.
No, we don't.
Because Maricopa is so slow.
Right.
But still, the point is that on last election day, we only had about 600 and some odd thousand people show up.
The numbers are certainly going to be lower because turnout's lower this year.
The numbers are certainly going to be a little bit lower because we had a little bit more Republicans show up earlier here.
But there's still hundreds of thousands of high props that are out there to be tabulated.
That is a fantastic number that gives us a lot of really great hope.
But we have to do the work.
We have to turn out people.
We have to get people to the polls.
We cannot sit back on our haunches.
Everyone has to vote like they're crawling through broken glass to make sure that Donald Trump gets elected.
So let's also kind of segue to what Donald Trump is closing tonight.
In 2016, I was there, front row seat.
Donald Trump closed his campaign with a midnight rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
He was in New Hampshire and then flew to Grand Rapids and closed out the entire campaign.
Donald Trump did the same thing in 2020.
I was there for that one.
And I will not be there tonight.
We are here as Donald Trump finishes his historic rally blitz.
Just to recap, guys, Donald Trump started this morning in Raleigh, North Carolina, went to Redding, Pennsylvania, and I think it's reading, but it's pronounced Redding, right?
I believe so.
And then went to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and then to Grand Rapids, Michigan.
A rally blitz the likes of which we have never seen.
He is going as hard as he possibly can.
Guys, I want to read some of these emails here.
Charlie, I got nine people I'm bringing to the voting booth tomorrow.
We are all working people.
Charlie, listen to your podcast now.
Early to rise for the polls tomorrow.
I got 40 people coming.
I want to let you know that 300 people at our church prayed tonight for the election.
By the way, you guys should remain in prayer all night for this election.
Charlie, I don't know you, but I love you.
All seven of us are going to vote in Arizona tomorrow.
We'll wait in line for as long as it takes.
A lot of Arizona Day of Voters, Tyler.
Like, a lot in this audience, which is very good.
Charlie, huge Trump fan voting tomorrow for Trump in Pennsylvania.
Big fan of your program.
Would love a signed hat.
members.charliekirk.com Right now, Charlie, I went to my supermarket.
I started asking the cashier if they're going to vote.
I asked last night, and the cashier didn't know where to go.
Found out she's in the same district as me.
Told her to go to work with me after that.
I'm getting one new voter to the polls.
Janet, that's so important, guys.
People don't know how to vote, right, Tyler?
Just you guys educating your neighbors where to vote, how to vote.
Voter education is a massive impediment.
And I'm not talking about the education of their knowledge.
Like, How do you actually go and vote?
By the way, we have Steve Bannon on the phone right now.
I want to go to him.
Steve, we are here at the night of the final MAGA rally of this election cycle, but really is the birth of the populist nationalist movement.
Steve, you've had a front row seat of this the last nine years.
Reflect on that for our audience here tonight.
Well, look, it's been a journey that's been nine or ten years.
And tonight, very symbolically, President Trump is going to the place that we had the final Rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan in 16.
You know, at 1 o'clock in the morning, really the day of, we arrived so late, it was the day of the election.
And President Trump decided to go back tonight.
It's historic.
It'll be the last rally he ever had as an active candidate.
And I think you're going to see some real fireworks here as he wraps up this just amazing run he's had at the end.
So, Steve, we need massive turnout.
The Joe Rogan endorsement is huge.
Feels like we have the momentum.
We are surging and peaking at the right time.
Harris' campaign is on cable TV trying to justify, saying they have multiple past the 270, trying to explain to themselves what's happening.
This is a turnout race, Steve.
We and I keep talking about it on each other's shows.
Do you feel the surge here, and what are the marching orders?
We have hundreds of thousands of people watching this broadcast right now.
We need people in the trenches to do the work.
I think the marching orders is what you've just been reading from these emails.
I've been doing Zoom calls all night with county party groups that are made of the precinct strategy guys throughout the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
And I can tell you that they're pumped up, but I think those emails you're just reading.
I've got one guy at work I'm taking.
The person working the checkout, I'm taking 40 people in the morning before we go to work.
That's how this is going to be put together.
People just got to kind of what's called ride to the sound of the guns.
They're going to self-organize.
And so I think it's very powerful.
I do agree with you.
I think that Joe Rogan, who had endorsed Bobby Kennedy, for him to step forward with Elon Musk today on the show and then endorse President Trump.
President Trump announces on the stage.
It's very powerful.
I agree.
I think we're peaking at the right time.
I think we've changed the electorate.
With all the grassroots groups that do all this registration, the Scott Presslers of the World, Turning Point's been at the forefront of that and building a cadre.
And, you know, tomorrow is game day.
We just got to get it on.
And I feel really good about it.
The night talking to these groups, people are focused.
People know what their work has to be.
Everybody's kind of bought in.
There's no questions about what we have to do tomorrow.
It's pretty straightforward.
And I agree with you.
A lot of people don't know even the rudimentaries of getting to the Yeah, and Steve, I just want to reiterate this for our audience.
What Trump did is he rejected the premise.
You see, the Jeb Bush way of doing things is you accept the electorate as is.
Donald Trump remade the electorate.
So we have different raw material, a different ingredient profile of what we are dealing with on the eve of 2020 for election and even 2020.
Can you speak to that, Steve, that Donald Trump rejected the premise and decided to change the raw material of which the election is made of?
And the Democrats don't really know what to do with it because we're bringing low-prop voters in, muscular class.
We leaned into the populist nationalism where we now outnumber them in the key states.
And in fact, we have a voter registration advantage like what we've never seen before.
Can you talk about the brilliance of shaping the electorate and what that means going into tomorrow?
Well, I think this is what populism is all about.
If you remember, Charlie, back and you were at the forefront of this turning point action, you know, people started doing the precinct strategy.
They didn't start doing voter registration.
What is it about this?
These are labor-intensive, but they're relatively inexpensive.
A lot of donors don't put money into this.
This is all kind of grassroots, bootstrapped operations, Scott Prez or something at all.
And you saw victory begets victory.
Once people stepped into the precinct strategy, they got involved, they became committed, and they said, hey, guess what?
This is fun.
I'm meeting new people.
I'm learning about the world.
I'm taking action.
I'm using my agency.
I'm accomplishing something.
Next thing you know, They're outchanging the electorate.
If you don't like the electorate you have, get out there and register people to vote.
And that was massive over the last four years.
It was done under the radar.
No, it's not glamorous.
People don't have to pay attention, but the people that did that did it every weekend.
They did it in parking lots of, you know, grocery store and shopping center parking lots.
They walked door to door.
Scott Preston has that great video.
He's in Gettysburg.
He's knocking on people's windows.
In their cars and saying, are you sure to vote?
He was like Johnny Appleseed.
That's what's changed this time.
And that is a victory for the people.
This MAGA movement, and particularly the cadre that's at the tip of the spear, basically let President Trump know in the darkest days of February, March, and April of 2021, after the big steal, when he went back to Mar-a-Lago and the entire political class abandoned him and all the lobbyists abandoned him, but they had his back.
And this movement was rebuilt, and we're on the cusp.
You had told us four years ago, Charlie, that the night before the election, we would be here, and the Democrats had no firewalls in any state, in Nevada, in North Carolina, and particularly in Pennsylvania, and in Arizona.
They don't have a firewall.
That we would have beaten them at their own game, changed the electorate, beaten them at their own game, and be prepared tomorrow, which should be our strength of getting people out On game day to vote and actually sticking through, whether it's an hour or two, you have to wait in line, people have the tenacity to do it.
This is the fight we would have asked for.
So that's why tomorrow, this is ours to lose.
If we just do our job tomorrow, we can close this out, hold the House, take the White House, pick up a couple of seats in the Senate, and then we've got to close the deal, make sure Mark Elias doesn't steal it, Make sure the media doesn't feel it and then get on with the hard work ahead of us.
So, Steve, just in closing, I want to be respectful of your time here and kind of how we are proceeding.
And I know you got a big show and a big agenda here.
But, you know, we missed you, Steve, for a couple months.
And we did our best to kind of hold everything up.
I speak for everyone here on the panel and everyone in the audience.
We did our best to try to keep that momentum going.
And, Steve, I don't know if you spoke about this publicly, but you've just kind of been like a tomahawk missile once you got out of prison and that unjust imprisonment.
I don't know if that added any more conviction, not that you needed it, Steve, but I'm sure you had a lot of time to think and a lot of time to reflect.
If you don't mind me asking, are there any takeaways there on the eve of the election?
Because you had a fair amount of time.
Go, please.
I told the guys on the show, I said, look, the show's not entertainment.
All our hosts, and I was able to stay very close to the show, my producers, and look at a lot of polling data.
Just support the cadre at the tip of the spear.
Our show is not an entertainment show.
It is kind of a war room.
It's an acquired taste for those people that are going to be the most active, the activist activists.
And I said, look, what they've done is done this voter registration and also the get out to vote.
And also training people to be in the election integrity project.
Those three things Or what's going to be needed to lead up to really the big push that will take place in the last two or three weeks.
And I'll be after the last week.
And the people that, from my producers to the co-hosts, everybody that came, all the contributors, they delivered.
I said, I don't care if the podcast numbers drop.
It's not important.
The people that are the people that are driving the action and using their agency will be there for the show, and that's what we need.
I came out of prison And everything had been accomplished.
I mean, I stepped in.
It was very easy for me to go back to fire-breather mode because the hard work had been done.
And that is because of my production team and obviously working with Turning Point and your great team and the Real America's Voice of Jack Posobiec.
It's like I never, quite frankly, of the work that was accomplished, like I never left.
Right?
A little more of the fireworks were there, but that's not important.
That's all kind of ephemeral.
We're here today on the eve of this.
And with, you know, the Charlie Kirk show and Jack Masovic and the World and these other kind of podcasts and shows that are really shows for people that are in the fight.
And we are perfectly positioned to win this tomorrow.
It's on us now.
It's on us.
And, you know, I'd like to be on our side of the football, Charlie.
I like it too.
It's a turnout race.
It's a sprint to the finish.
Steve, you're welcome to call back in later tonight.
I want to be respectful of your time.
Thank you for calling in.
We have your back and great to have you back, Steve.
Charlie, love it.
You guys keep running.
I hope that Riley and Prescott turns out great and you're the one in Green World.
Thank you, Steve.
Thank you.
We have Steve Gruber, but let's wait for a second before we do that, right?
I just want to name some of the members that have become members.
Tell me about the new people you're bringing out to the polls.
Let's have a competition, everybody.
I will give away some hats if you guys tell me about the great stories.
I'm just going to pick a couple.
The best stories of how you are bringing new voters to the polls tomorrow.
If you've already voted, great.
You want a cookie?
If you want your country, bring five people.
Bring ten people.
Bring fifteen people.
Load up the entire truck.
Friends, family, nieces, nephews, cousins.
Go on the Turning Point Action application.
Text every single one of your neighbors that pops up on those flags.
Download it and go straight to the map.
Call, text, go knock on their door on your street, get them to the polls.
Yeah, and look, this is the time to surge.
This is the time to...
It only happens every four years.
I remember exactly how I felt four years ago.
And four years ago in the presidential cycle during COVID, I was like, could we have done more?
It was so hard to do stuff.
Remember, Tyler?
It was hard to get people to do stuff and knock on doors.
It was just a goofy cycle.
There's no excuses, everybody, okay?
This is straight to the finish like a beeline.
The electorate favors us.
The people are in our advantage.
It is pure grit and hustle.
And look, we'll know really early tomorrow morning if MAGA decided to take the day off.
We'll know, right, Andrew?
Yeah.
Yeah, we're going to know really soon.
By the way, can I tell you one really encouraging stat that I think is critical, and actually you play a big role in this.
So, last week we were looking at the male to female early vote numbers.
And we rightly observed that men were about eight points behind women.
Six to eight, depending on the states.
Narrowing.
You tweeted out.
You said it is...
Men are lagging.
And if men lag, we're going to lose this election.
The tweet goes nuclear.
I mean, and by the way, the left loved it.
They're like, see, look at women power!
I'm here to tell you today that...
Within the sound of my voice, men are outpacing their levels of voting at early voting in 2024.
They're doing better in 2024 than they did in 2020.
So let me say that again.
We're ahead of pace compared to 2020.
So men have stepped it up.
And Tyler, you would probably agree with this, that election day is when we have a disproportionate share of male vote.
We still have women, obviously.
It's almost 60-40.
It's an important thing to focus on.
This is why we focused on it.
And we've not only said it, but more importantly, we've shared it in the background with really a lot of influential people as well.
And said, hey, we need to make sure that men show up.
Because there's been a trend over the last decade or so, last 12 years, really since third wave feminism really took hold in this country, which is that men have shown up less and less for elections and women are showing up still at higher levels.
And so it's really important that we don't just do the whole...
And I think this was a mistake that we made in 2020 where everyone was so focused on just all the females in the country, which is really important, really critical.
We want to win.
We want to win over females, but you want to win over males, too.
And when you're losing males, that can be a horrible, horrible outcome in some of these key critical districts that are win or lose by a couple thousand votes.
Do we have Cliff Maloney?
Do we have Cliff here?
I want to thank those of you that are becoming members.
Members.CharlieKirk.com Members.CharlieKirk.com Let's just read some of these names here.
Allison, Madison, Julie, Heather, and many more.
Daisy will send me the list.
Cliff is from PHAs.
PHAs.com Cliff, what are the latest numbers out of Pennsylvania?
What do we need to see tomorrow to bring home the Keystone State?
What is going on here?
Cliff in the great state.
Walk us through the numbers so we have a too-big-to-rig turnout in Pennsylvania.
Cliff Maloney.
Yeah, well, Charlie, I appreciate you guys, as always.
I will tell you, you know, when we continue to look at these numbers, when you and me first chatted about this, you know, remember, Biden had a 1.4 mail-in vote advantage over Donald Trump in 2020.
It's 11 o'clock here.
We just got down to an event with Scott Perry.
I'm looking at the numbers.
Let me read them to you for most updated count.
I mean, the Democrats, there were two releases today, which has confused a couple people, so I want to be clear about that.
But we're talking about a 400,000 advantage.
That's it.
Between Republican returns and Democrat returns.
Democrats are up 400,000.
The numbers I'm pulling right now, Democrats have cracked a million in terms of returns with these mail-in votes.
And Republicans are over 600,000.
We cracked 600,000.
And so, look, there's a lot of ways to look at this, but I'd much rather be Republicans than Democrats.
And I want to say this, Charlie, one more time, so everybody on your show understands this.
In 2020, Biden won mail-in votes by 1.4 million.
He had 2 million to Trump's 600,000.
A 1.4 million advantage.
And right now, the numbers we're looking at, 600,000 for us to a million for them.
Of 400,000.
This firewall is a farce.
It's a complete farce.
And the only way we lose tomorrow is if Republicans stay home.
If our voters show up, we will have a concrete, decisive victory in Pennsylvania.
Andrew, anyone who has a question for Cliff can chime in.
Andrew, do you want to repeat those numbers here?
Tyler, I think this is very important.
I just want to make sure we are narrowing in here.
Tyler, please.
This is where it stands right now.
This is what the chatter is in Pennsylvania.
I want to ask this to Cliff because this is a good conversation to have.
Basically, what this comes down to is The roadmap here looks really bad for the Democrats.
And I love being able to talk about Pennsylvania because we can more freely talk about Pennsylvania than Arizona because we don't want to over-promise under-deliver Arizona.
So this is great for me, Cliff, by the way.
All the pressure's on you, Cliff.
Yeah, I've been not able to talk about all the good things happening in Arizona because we want to wait until tomorrow.
But everything looks awesome, as what Cliff's saying is in comparison to 2020, where the differential that exists looks so much better for Republicans because Democrats just can't turn out people as well on election day, hence the reason why they've created election season.
The one thing that's holding everybody up that everybody's saying, well, I don't know, is also the synonymous decline in turnout for Republicans as well.
What are you feeling like, Cliff?
Give us some of the numbers and some of your introspection here on why you believe that we're going to still be able to outperform Democrats at the number that we need to tomorrow.
And that that shouldn't be a concern.
Or what do you think?
Or maybe that is a concern.
I don't know.
But give us kind of your thoughts.
Yeah, I mean, I don't think...
If I look at it like this, okay?
If you talk about...
And I'm looking at numbers, so I apologize if I'm looking off screen here.
But if you look at the difference between...
If we looked four years ago compared to today, Republicans versus Democrats...
I mean, Republicans are 100,000 better than we were at this time four years ago.
And Democrats are down.
I mean, we're talking hundreds of thousands of ballots that they're down.
And I want to be clear with everybody.
We only lost Pennsylvania by 80,000 votes, right?
So I shouldn't say this out loud because you're right, Tyler.
We're getting to that point where, you know, obviously I'm trying to make sure everyone turns out because we still could lose.
If they have a record number of turnout, they could win.
But do you know what I was expecting today, without ever saying it publicly?
I was expecting these last 72 hours to be when we'd finally see Democrats pull to the numbers that we're used to them having.
Right?
We'd finally see Democrats be at a position where they're actually gaining in these final hours so they had a real firewall.
But it's not there.
And so two things have to happen for Democrats to win tomorrow in Pennsylvania.
Okay, number one, Republicans have to have abysmal turnouts.
I'm talking like the worst turnout we've had since they've changed the rules and even probably in the last 20 years.
That has to happen, number one.
Number two, Democrats have to set the record for the best turnout they've had since 2019.
Their whole infrastructure.
Charlie, you know this.
You said this to me day one, talking about low propensity and how they've changed everything.
The whole infrastructure for Democrats is their plan is to run up the score with mail-in votes.
They have failed.
But once again, we have to turn out tomorrow and they have to hope we don't and then have record turnout.
So I'm not trying to be sensationalist to say this, but based on these current numbers, forget about counting on the Democrats to have an okay day.
I don't care about that.
I want to win because Republicans actually seal the deal.
We have fought mail-in votes to actually be competitive.
And now we have the opportunity to dominate Election Day again and deliver the White House to President Trump.
That's how I see things as they stand right now.
So Tyler wanted to chime in here.
By the way, I just want to say thank you to some of our members, members.charliekirk.com.
So just, I want to be clear though, Cliff, what areas do we need to be looking for early in the day?
Do we really need to focus our attention on?
Give us the hot spots.
Bucks County being one of them, which is now a Republican County.
Erie, Luzerne, the center part of the state.
And Cliff, am I on hopium thinking that we're going to do better in Center County?
No, Center County, I've got to give Charlie credit.
I mean, I really mean this, Charlie.
The numbers we are seeing there from your event at Penn State, I mean, we've got to get you to do an event in every county.
We might flip some of these horrible counties.
Hey, Arizona.
No, I've done an event in almost every county in Arizona, right, Tyler?
Almost all of them.
It's not as difficult in Arizona.
Let me work on this one and then we'll...
Wait, every Arizona county?
No, I haven't done it.
There's Apache, Navajo.
Nobody goes to Greenlee.
Greenlee.
I haven't done Gila.
I haven't done Yuma.
I think I've done Mojave.
I haven't done...
I've done Pima, obviously.
Santa Cruz.
We had a tornado warning in Gila.
Santa Cruz would be fun.
Santa Cruz is super lip.
All right, hold on.
Super Southern, super lip.
Anyway, Cliff, we interrupted you.
I actually have a substantive.
Yeah, let me say this, okay?
The first county, so let's say 8 o'clock hits tomorrow, right?
Let's put everybody in that perspective.
8 o'clock Eastern hits, and I truly believe we'll see mail-in votes that have been counted, roughly 30, 40, maybe 50% will be counted.
Democrats could be facing defeat by 830.
If we see the number come in for Philadelphia County, forget Allegheny, forget all the swing counties, okay?
If you're asking me, Charlie, what is something specific to look for?
Look at Philadelphia County.
If they are down at the numbers that we expect them to be down, this race could be over immediately.
Because you have to understand, they're down roughly 100,000 in terms of the votes that they thought from some of these super urban areas.
And I just think if I'm like, okay, at 830, could we call the White House?
Well, Georgia, if Georgia goes the right way, if North Carolina goes the right way, and I'm not trying to steal your thunder out west, but we could be in a position that Philadelphia County comes in.
Please steal our thunder, okay?
We are here as a pivot point if Pennsylvania falls to get a Wisconsin combo, okay?
Let's just understand our role in this equation, okay?
We're the backup plan, okay?
Yeah, and...
We will absolutely play fit players.
So if Philadelphia falls short...
Not to be too sensitive on what we showed the video last night, but we're plan B. Yes, but Cliff, please continue.
Yeah, so if Philadelphia comes in where all the numbers are showing us right now they come in, this thing could be quick.
And obviously I'm rooting for that.
I'm not banking on it, right?
We need to compete.
Please don't anybody get cocky.
Don't get excited.
Don't think, oh, I don't have to show up.
The numbers look that good.
But if you look at 2020, the way they won Pennsylvania...
It was very simple.
They ran up the mail-in ballots at record levels in Philadelphia County.
Forget Allegheny.
Forget these other counties.
That's how they won in 2020 by 80,000 votes.
If they come in and they're down 100 or maybe even 200,000, maybe even 250 from where they were in 2020 in Philadelphia, they don't have the votes in the rest of the states.
And then, let me just give you guys a quick timeline.
So that's between 8 and 8.30, we'll see the first hit.
And believe me, we're going to be down.
It won't be 2020 level, but we're down by 60 points, 80 to 20.
It won't be that bad, because we've worked the mail-in vote program.
But I warn people, we will be down.
The trick is, how far down are we?
And if you're seeing numbers across some of these counties...
Yeah, but hold on.
Don't Election Day get counted before mail in Pennsylvania?
Yeah.
No, so they're going to start counting in the morning, right?
First thing in the morning, they will start counting mail-in votes.
And by the way, this is supposed to be the rule.
This was a problem in 2020 when they changed the rules.
Yeah, they didn't do that in 2020.
Certain counties are doing it right.
Certain counties are in a certain way.
So they're supposed to count the mail-ins, and then they're supposed to report that.
And then from there, you're going to see mail-ins get dumped.
Then you're going to see election day start to trickle in from these different counties, and then they'll finish mail-in voting.
And so, look, this thing could be called at 9 o'clock.
It could be called at 5 in the morning.
But I'm telling people, Philadelphia County is the county to keep your eye on.
You know what, though, Cliff?
They're not going to call.
You remember that clip with Brett Baer?
Maybe we can find it again.
They were talking about in 2020 how they called Arizona so quickly, and then they go over to Ohio.
And it was like Chris Steierwald goes, well, you know, it's only nine points separating, you know, Trump and Joe Biden there.
We don't want to get too froggy with Ohio.
We don't want to get premature.
That's exactly what they're going to do with Pennsylvania.
Yeah, exactly.
And Brett Baird, to his credit, said, hey, what are you doing?
You got froggy with Arizona.
But I have a feeling because of the historical nature of being such a tough state for Republicans to really pull off a win there, I think they're going to play out the drama as long as they can.
I just have a feeling.
But Cliff, I have a substantive question.
Not that Charlie's wasn't.
What happened...
To these vote-by-mail in Philly, where the heck did they go?
I mean, I'm seeing some numbers that say they're down over 200,000 VBM in Philly alone.
What on earth explains this?
When you look at the requests, right, this was something that was interesting.
We checked from when they changed the rules in 2020, right?
We've had four elections.
And so Democrats always have hundreds of people on the ground getting these requests, and then obviously they're chasing the ballots.
If you look at the tracker of when these requests come in and when they have their spikes, Democrats all four years, I'm even talking 21 and 23, all four years, they have a huge spike in the second half of August and the first half of September with the requests.
Because remember, not everybody gets a ballot.
You have to request a ballot each year and they're out there working it.
They miss their spike.
I kept expecting it.
I kept waiting for it.
When are they going to hit that point where instead of getting 10,000 or 20,000, they've got 100,000 requests that come in in a seven-day period?
They missed it.
Now, you might ask why.
Nobody can tell you the real answer, but I can take a guess.
There's no enthusiasm for Harris.
What they had in the whole Biden kind of scam of him being this alternative and this Scranton Joe, that's out the window.
And I just think black men in Philadelphia, I have been screaming about this.
This is not 2016, guys.
This is not 2020.
When we go to the door of black men in Philadelphia County and the collar counties around Philadelphia, they do not like Kamala Harris.
They hate her, quite frankly.
They are pissed off.
They don't like her when it comes to her policies, and they've had time to compare a Trump administration to a Harris-Biden administration.
And so the enthusiasm's there, but it's not just enthusiasm for Trump.
It's enthusiasm against Harris.
So my rationale is that a lot of the black men are the reason these numbers are getting pulled down so much specifically in Philly County.
And once again, Harris can't win PA if she doesn't dominate Philadelphia.
And she's lagging tremendously.
So, yeah, I mean, it's interesting, too.
You think about black community, black urban core from Chicago to Philly to Atlanta.
I mean, the immigration, I think, is an underappreciated element here.
I mean, black Americans definitely feel like they've been put second to the illegal immigrant surge.
And then inflation.
Black Americans respect Donald Trump, the businessman, and what he can do for them economically.
I think that's completely true.
I have one follow-up question, but Tyler, you've got an explanation on this.
Well, we're seeing this in Philly.
We're seeing this in Detroit.
We're seeing this in Nevada.
And it's the same thing.
And one of the conversations that will probably happen With a solid Trump win coming out of these three states is that the union bosses need time to prepare their base to get out the vote.
It is a year-in, year-out infrastructure that they built.
A lot of people don't know this, and so we'll share this on here, but we'll be talking a lot about this over the next two years, next four years, is that the spouses of union leaders typically run C4 operations that exist in these cities.
And so what happened this election cycle that's really unique was that they had years to prepare for Biden in 2020.
They had years to get everybody ready.
COVID happened and it was like a dream scenario for union members.
Why?
Because it was easy to go out and harvest those votes.
It was easy to go out and collect everybody together, get everybody on board because everyone was just sitting there and they make extra money that way.
This election cycle Everybody was ticked off at Joe Biden because they did all that work in 2020.
They hated the guy.
And then nobody knew who was going to be the candidate.
And this was a background brokering deal over Kamala, and no one was really bought in that much.
And so guess what?
They don't have this time.
They don't have the long-term, multi-year infrastructure of the union chiefs that are putting everything together.
And by the way, you have polling that suggests that the union members, like Trump...
But not only that, Sean O'Brien, Teamsters, they didn't endorse.
Because the union members...
He spoke at the RNC. Because the union members are 65-35.
In reality, it's probably more like 70-30, or 75-25 even, probably, because the polls that we're seeing are probably lies.
And in favor of Trump.
So they could not slap together fast enough.
a save kamala harris in the union-esque environment and that is the reason why they're not turning out early ballots well and part of the reason cliff back to your point as well you you said you see that spike in the summer well joe biden drops out in july 2020 or july 21 right almost almost to august right They tried to manufacture a hype around Kamala.
I think for all of us, it felt astroturfed.
I don't know if it was effective or not.
But basically, maybe that just switching horses in the middle of the race really affected them.
Here's my follow-up.
Actually, this is from Kane.
He just sent me this.
He said, what are the data points to watch tomorrow morning To know if we are turning out.
That's a good question.
You mentioned this briefly.
What are the first indicators that you're going to be looking for and that our audience should, Cliff?
Charlie, you had texted me about something.
I'll get back to that question.
I think that's great.
I'm pulling the numbers right now.
My team is on this day four years ago.
What was the change?
Because we were expecting this huge boom.
Charlie, I just want to confirm on your show Democrats had a net gain today of 2,000 mail-in returns.
Rich Barris is right to react the way he did, which is like, that's got to be a typo.
And I want to see the number from last time, because I think when we show that, you're going to be like, what is the change?
Because four years ago, I'm sure it was a massive surge in the final 24 hours.
But that number is confirmed.
They had a 2,000 net gain Even though in previous years we're talking about thousands and thousands of ballots.
So that is confirmed.
You're talking about Obama visiting.
Yeah, right?
Because they've deployed Obama's entire delegation, including Obama, to go try and hype up PA, correct?
And that's all they got.
Well, and to that point, it's crazy because...
They can't even turn out, after these Obama visits, the equivalent amount of people who are allegedly showing up to these rallies.
Yeah, exactly.
It's mind-numbing.
We'll call that the Michelle Obama bump.
But now, listen, I think things to look for immediately are going to be, what are we looking like And a lot of these strong red counties and a lot of these bellwether counties, right?
Luzerne County is going to be crucial.
Erie County is going to be crucial.
Bucks, Berks, I mean, all of these.
Charlie, I'm going to keep pointing to Center County.
You know, if we start to see some trends in some of these counties that are not supposed to go our way or not supposed to go our way significantly when it comes to mail-in, or excuse me, when it comes to Election Day voters, well, then I'm going to feel very confident.
If Philadelphia is through the roof, we've got a problem.
And so I think we're going to have to monitor each of these, see where the Democrat strongholds are, see where the Republican strongholds are.
And I think that's going to dictate it.
But look, I don't want to Arizona my Pennsylvania, no offense to you guys, but they need to be prepared the same way they did this to you guys in 2022 with the super long lines, the ballots being misprinted.
I mean, this is the fear and this is what I worry about when we do focus so heavily on Election Day.
Right?
As you run into those problems.
And so my push and my demand and my challenge to every single patriot that's going to be voting tomorrow morning It's to make sure you don't just show up at 6 o'clock.
Because these lines are going to be crazy.
Tomorrow is election day.
Whatever it takes for you to take off work, actually dedicate time.
I'm expecting three to five hour lines at some of these places.
I think we're going to set records for turnout.
That's scary though, Cliff.
But you have to stay in line.
I don't like that.
That's scary.
Again, this is what we've tried to do at Arizona.
We've tried to narrow down the lines.
And we have 80% of our votes in, right, Tyler?
80% of our voters have voted.
Historically, that's what happens.
We don't know because Maricopa is out to lunch right now.
We have buses that are literally going to be going from one polling center, if it gets too long, it gets too out of control, bussing them to a smaller line elsewhere, which is Tyler's genius idea.
But Cliff, what portion of your electorate has voted?
40%?
You don't really know.
I'd have to pull the numbers.
I think it's closer to 30%.
Jeez, that's insane.
So just to be clear, like...
Well, actually, let me...
Yeah, go ahead.
Let me do the math on the spot.
You figure there's a million Democrats have returned, roughly 600,000 Republicans.
That's 1.6.
And in 2024, you figure we had 6.7 million people vote.
I mean, to do the math, 1.6 out of, I think it's going to be higher.
So let's say somewhere between, you know, 6.8 and 7 million.
You know, I'm a former math teacher.
I should be able to do it on the spot.
But I mean, there are plenty of votes that are expected to come in on Election Day.
And remember, Trump won Election Day in 2020 by 1.3 million.
We couldn't beat Biden's 1.4 million advantage.
But that is a cultural problem that, yes, we're working to fix.
I wish we were at the point that you guys are, where the cultural—it's almost like Florida-level, where Republicans are becoming comfortable.
We've definitely cut into their margins, but we need a massive turnout tomorrow from every Trump supporter in PA. Yep.
Does anyone have a thought there to follow up?
I mean, that's the same thing.
I was just telling you in our office before, the way you lose this election tomorrow if you're Trump is if you have a significant decline in our own turnout.
So this is the same thing that we've been saying over and over and over again.
We have to have everyone turn out.
You cannot have anyone get comfortable.
It doesn't matter how bad you think this is.
And this is what's scary a little bit for us is, you know, just because Pennsylvania goes our way early to that can't be an indicator to the rest of the westward states to stay at home.
I, you know, we have this this consistent conversation every.
Of calling Eastern states.
Calling Eastern states.
North Carolina and Pennsylvania go Trump's way.
It's still not over until the fat lady sings here.
Everybody within the sound of this podcast, within the sound of this live stream where we have now a lot of people that are listening to this, you have to turn out.
You have to get two or three extra people out.
That's right.
Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona, Georgia.
That's the race right now.
That is the race where we're at.
Kamala Harris is set to speak soon.
We will not be throwing to that.
It's a waste of time.
Speaking at the Trump rally?
Well, she's speaking in Philly.
Isn't that where Hillary ended?
Wow.
I don't know if she got the Independence Hall permit, though.
This looks like in some convention center here.
Is that not outside?
Might be.
I can't quite tell.
I'm squinting.
Oh, no, that's in front of the Rocky thing.
That's in front of the...
What is that?
Philadelphia Museum of Art?
Yeah, there you go.
We should ask the Philly expert on our panel right now.
Who's wearing the Eagles hat.
Yes, the art museum.
The Rocky stairs.
Oh, actually, can I tell everyone, since we're telling stories?
We did this event in Pittsburgh at the Steelers game.
And it was with some former NFL greats that played for the Steelers.
And we asked for a headshot from Cliff, and he sends over the headshot of him wearing the Eagles hat.
And we put it on.
We put it on the graphic, and on the graphic that was tweeted out, Antonio Brown and Le'Veon Bell still retweeted it.
Listen, I do take my hat off when I go past Harrisburg, but I got to stay true to my Eagles.
And Philadelphia is, you know, we need patriots across the state, but that's my roots.
Cliff, speaking of which, though, Pittsburgh, how is Pittsburgh, for the unaffiliate, how is Pittsburgh, from a voting standpoint, different than Philly?
Are we looking for different trends?
Does it fall in line as Philly goes, so does Pittsburgh?
Explain.
Yeah, I mean, obviously, the population is much smaller just in general, right?
And the Pittsburgh suburbs, I'm not going to say they're going the opposite direction, depending on how far out you look, but they're very different from Philly's collar counties.
Now, obviously, we're making tremendous gains since 2020, but the mass chunk of votes that comes from Philadelphia, Bucks, Chester, Delco, Monco, There's just such a population there that Democrats have really honed in on that as, hey, if we're going to win, we have to run up the score.
Now, in the past, they've been able to count on Allegheny County.
They're going to win it, but we've been cutting into that because of the Trump effect.
I mean, seriously.
First, it was Obama.
A lot of the blue-collar workers that weren't really, you know, they were Democrats, but they were pro-life, pro-traditional marriage, pro-gun.
I went to school out in Johnston.
I met a lot of these people that had no correlation with Obama or the National Party, but they were lifelong union families, right?
Obama started to chip away, but Trump really started to turn and move the momentum.
And so Democrats, they didn't abandon Allegheny County at all.
It's their second most important county.
But they realize that the Philadelphia County and the Philadelphia Collar Counties, there's just so many more votes there.
And so when you look at their staff, when you look at where they're spending money, when you look at where they're doing events, yes, it's Pittsburgh and Philly, but it's really hitting those counties.
I mean, they've been in Delco, they've been in Bucks, they've been in Chester.
That's where they know they have bodies.
They have actual ballots they can target.
And so, if I'm them, which, by the way, this doesn't mean they've been successful, but they've been trying to run up the score there, and they're just not seeing the returns they did in 2020.
Cliff, we are awaiting the final rally here.
Just final marching orders here for someone that has extra time on their hands in Pennsylvania.
Where can they be most helpful tomorrow?
And can people bring ballots to voting centers?
How does that work in Pennsylvania?
Yeah, so number one, if you have not voted yet, make sure you vote tomorrow.
You cannot request a mail-in ballot at this point.
The 29th was a deadline.
If you have a mail-in ballot, take it to your county.
Okay, take it to your county office, the same place you could have turned it in before.
But really, Charlie, the big push now— But not your voting center?
You can't bring it to a voting center?
Is that a separate—they won't accept mail?
No, and the reason— The reason I don't push that is because then you're dealing with local precinct folks who might not know the rules.
There are certain rules in certain areas where you can forfeit it.
Right, Tyler?
Yeah, yeah.
I'm sorry to interrupt, but yeah.
Well, and this is a good point that we're bringing up, too.
So in some states, too, we're having people who already sent in their mail, and they got back that they need to cure it.
So that means that they have problems.
So they got a letter back.
And in some places, particularly in the Midwest, Wisconsin's this way, a few other states are this way, you have to go physically in to cure it.
But they have to let you vote when you go in person.
So kind of what Cliff's saying here too is this, is that just show up in person, get your vote in, don't mess around with jumping through hoops and things like that.
They have to let you vote at least provisionally when you go in.
And that is way more important than trying to mess around with figuring anything else out.
Sorry, continue, Cliff.
yeah and one other thing to kind of piggyback off that 19 of our 67 counties here in pa do allow for legal curing and so we're working that we're tracking that we're trying to get those people to crack their bow but i agree with tyler If you have a mail-in ballot and you go to your precinct and there's any issue with them accepting it or having them – you forfeit it to them to then vote in person, make sure you demand – you stay in line and you demand the right to cast a provisional ballot.
And look, guys, I don't even mean this stuff is nefarious.
You just have a lot of people that they're volunteering their time or getting paid minimum wage to do this.
And so you have to win equipped and every vote is going to count.
So my final barking or marching orders, if you will, is either get your ballot back or number two, make sure you have a plan to vote that involves understanding this isn't a lunch break.
Okay, do not expect a win for 15 minutes.
If it ends up being a five-minute session, that's great.
But for most people, we are going to have thousands of people at these polling locations, so be prepared.
And my final wish is this.
If every Trump supporter in Pennsylvania votes tomorrow, we will have a resounding victory, and it will be because of the efforts of Turning Point Action, Early Vote Action, groups like us at PHAs, all these partners, We're finally competing with the Democrats and using their tactics to win.
Just final question, Cliff.
How many voting places are there statewide?
Is it one per precinct?
Is it adequate enough?
What is the situation here?
Yeah, so there's 67 counties.
I mean, some of them, there's literally only a handful, but it's in the thousands.
I believe it's over 2,000 locations across the state.
So, yeah, look, some of them are staffed with one person.
Others, like in Philly and Allegheny, are going to have hundreds of people working them.
You're right, Charlie.
It's a different experience for everybody based on where you are, but I just want people to be prepared.
By the way, the reason I'm so much thinking this is going to be a huge turnout is I'm not rooting for the Democrats.
But think about this.
We only have 1.6 returns right now.
Last time around, we had nearly 3 million returns.
So there's all those people that now have the opportunity to vote.
And for those worried about election integrity, There are much fewer votes to count via mail-in.
So this should take a lot quicker to count.
So if Josh Shapiro comes out there and starts barking about how, oh, it's going to take us another three days, well, that's BS, right?
But be prepared.
This is going to take time.
And anybody that thinks your vote's not going to matter, you're the reason we may not deliver the White House for Trump, and I'd encourage you to double down.
Wow, three days.
That sounds nice, Cliff.
I wish we had that kind of tight timeline here in Arizona.
Jackie Heinrich, who's a Fox News reporter, says this.
An observation.
The Harris campaign has not been talking very much about early voting data.
When they have figures they feel good about, they share them very quickly with the media, like high female turnout.
The past few days, we've received hard numbers on young, black, and Latino early turnout.
Instead, they've been sharing numbers for doors knocked and calls made.
This is important, right, Tyler?
That's activity, not results.
They've been leaking activity, not results.
We focus on results here.
Yeah, exactly.
They've shared some anecdotes, like high young voter turnout in college towns where you'd expect it and state some enthusiasm, but they're not giving out the kind of details that Trump campaign is touting, like the Republican share of early vote amongst new or infrequent battleground states, etc.
The Harris campaign maintains they still have multiple pathways to 70, but publicly they're projecting less confidence than in previous cycles at this point.
Harris is obviously animating a different swath of the electorate, so on and so forth.
Another challenge for anyone trying to read the tea leaves, polls don't accurately measure potential impact of Dobbs or Trump's support in past elections.
So we'll see.
Cliff, we don't want to take you too late.
This is the last MAGA rally.
Cliff, you've done great work this cycle.
You deserve a lot of credit, Cliff.
You've been great.
Thank you.
Hey, I appreciate that, guys.
Y'all take care.
Let's win this thing.
Cliff, we might have you call back to the show tomorrow.
Give us an update.
Oh, man.
I want everyone to...
So it is 915 local here.
It will be 24 hours from now, guys.
We're going to know a lot.
It's crazy to think.
Every 15 minutes is another 1% of the weight gone.
I know, right?
It's like we're going to know Georgia has to have all their votes basically counted by this time.
By the way, you know what's crazy?
I think we all share this sentiment.
I so vividly remember, right after 2020, the election, and how that election day dragged on for weeks and weeks and weeks.
I don't feel like we've stopped.
I genuinely don't feel like anything has stopped.
It's just been four years of constant.
Hopefully, you listening at home don't feel that exact same way, because I don't think it's healthy for the country, but it's been a grind.
And 24 hours to go.
Great point, Tyler.
I think that's really smart.
We need to talk about the House of Representatives and the Senate.
But first, Daisy, can you send me more names, please?
I want to sign some more hats.
I want to thank Mary, Harold, Bernard, Missy, Kalen, Holly, Celine, Heidi.
Do you notice they're almost all women members?
I thought we're losing women.
I thought women aren't supporting us.
We have a lot of women.
They already voted.
I will tell you.
I know.
The MAGA women are the best, by the way.
I will tell you, it's always dependent on platform.
Oh, and the Buccaneers are in overtime, by the way.
The TikTok and YouTube are just like male forums.
I mean, look, I'm just going to be honest.
Instagram's a little more female.
No one's going to believe me, but more women than men stop me for selfies.
It's just a fact.
Okay, anyway.
Jocelyn, Michael, Angie, Lori, Angie, Becca.
You guys can leave on the members' website.
You can drop down and leave a voicemail that we'll use this week.
Members.CharlieKirk.com.
Who is on the stage or is it just music, guys, at the rally?
Is it just music?
Okay.
Then we're going to keep anchoring this.
Members.CharlieKirk.com.
Let's go fast.
Tyler, what's going on with the United States Senate?
I would be shocked if we don't take the U.S. Senate.
We did a lot of work in Montana this cycle, very quietly under the radar.
We did a couple events there.
Tyler, what can we expect out of the great state of Montana?
Because that alone will determine the future of the U.S. Senate.
So let's give everybody just a quick recap of what to look for tomorrow because this will be a conversation outside of the presidential race.
You've got Montana expected to flip.
West Virginia for sure is gone.
So that thing is done, right?
So now the races to watch that exist out there, you have Ohio, which we're pulling for our boy Bernie.
Yeah, he's looking good.
Bernie Moreno, who is a great, great dude.
Wonderful, great friend to Turning Point.
Great friend of the program, as one would say.
You've got Wisconsin, which I think is the next most likely flip.
So you've got our good friend Eric Hovde, who also loves Turning Point.
We've spent a ton of time, obviously, we've been talking about Wisconsin.
So much until we're blue in the face because Turning Point is one of the only organizations that has a huge headquarters in Waukesha.
Yeah, don't sleep on Wisconsin, guys.
Wisconsin could shock the world tomorrow.
Wisconsin is known to shock the world.
In fact...
It's the hardest state to pull in the country.
It is the hardest state to pull because they do not have partisan voter registration.
Totally.
And people are very to themselves.
And it's a collection of 300 small towns.
It's 300 mid-major towns.
It's 320,000-person towns and two lib cities.
And just like Cliff said, you have a severe undervote in early votes happening in Milwaukee right now.
And just as interject, it also, percentage-wise, has the most white working-class men of any battleground state.
Just as a percentage.
Yeah, I think people get the wrong impression of it because I think that...
They think of Milwaukee and Madison.
They think of Madison.
Madison is like the...
Like, it's insane how blue it is for a major city.
Yeah, it's like Berkeley-level lib.
It's a big university town.
And so one thing I think catches people off guard is they probably might think it's like, you know, it's maybe like Massachusetts, like a very highly educated white state.
It actually has one of the lower college degree completion rates in the country.
So you have a lot of less educated...
I don't use that up as short.
No, I love it.
Literally less educated voters.
You have a lot of wise people.
You have a lot of muscular class.
Yeah, a lot of muscular class, a lot of...
A lot of farmers.
Yeah, a lot of blue-collar workers, a lot of hunters, a lot of that.
And so that is the next race to keep your eye on, because I think as the state goes for president, I think that's what's going to happen in the Senate race.
That's my prediction, is that it's going to be that tight, that close, and that little space in between the two races.
I've got to interrupt.
I don't know who's running Kamala's operation.
It is now 11.20 Eastern.
Why have they not her take the stage yet?
I mean, I don't understand.
She's sober.
Our guy hasn't taken the stage yet?
What?
Our guy hasn't taken the stage yet.
No, no, but he did a rally before this.
Oh, true, true.
Trump hit the primetime window, and then he hits the late-night window, so that's not the same thing.
This is Kamala's big event.
She's sobering up.
Is it also just like some white guy playing a guitar?
Bon Jovi or something?
I don't know who's been running her campaign logistics, but from someone who studies this stuff, not great.
She's missed a lot of primetime windows.
Unless you don't want people to see your candidate.
I think that's what it is.
I mean, honestly, some of the clips from MSNBC that are coming through are very...
I don't know if you want to play any of those, Charlie, but things are not going well for MSNBC tonight.
Following the Joe Rogan endorsement...
By the way, the Rogan thing is like a surge of energy.
Imagine being on the other side of it.
The internet is shaking right now.
I mean, seriously.
And by the way, you compare that to the Taylor Swift endorsement, which was muted.
Oh, who?
What?
Stantage running TV ads now.
I wonder why.
Well, so you compare that to the Taylor Swift endorsement, which was muted, right?
And by the way, very highly choreographed.
She has the debate performance.
Everybody's talking about the debate.
Taylor Swift comes in kind of like...
It's like a cat picture.
Yeah, with a cat picture.
It was literally a cat picture.
And kind of quietly, for her standards, just kind of like drafts off the news cycle.
No, I mean, look, Taylor Swift could have done a concert tonight and said you got Lady Gaga.
Who wants to see that?
Alright, I'm sure there's a demo there.
Wait, so I want to finish on the Senate real quick.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
The space between Hovde and Trump, I think, is going to be small.
And then you've got three other races that you could look at here that could be severely influenced by turnout that happen tomorrow.
And again, we don't want to get ahead of our skis here, but you have Pennsylvania, right?
So we've got the race in Pennsylvania.
With Dave McCormick and Casey.
Yeah, Trump will outperform McCormick, almost guaranteed.
But Charlie was one of the early supporters of Dave.
If we had Dave across the finish line, we were like early OG Dave McCormick guys.
Same with Bernie Moreno, by the way.
Bernie, same thing.
Bernie and Dave, we were on board early.
And Kerry Lake, too.
And J.D. Vince.
Well, and Kerry, yeah.
But Kerry's a good friend.
So then we'll talk about Arizona.
So if things are happening right now, and the internet is a chatter right now, because the polling for Kerry has been unfairly terrible, And looking at this, and now all of a sudden all the pundits are going, wait, the polls are a lot tighter than we think.
She's within two or three points.
And guess what?
The Republicans lead right now in Arizona, as we've talked about, so we're blue in the face, by almost nine points.
And that's almost certainly going to go up tomorrow.
So with that being the case, Kerry has a very good projected shot if the polling holds that way.
And then Nevada is the place where people are least bullish with Sam Brown.
However, same scenario.
If polling is miscapturing the turnout ratio that's going to happen tomorrow and if the Democrats get ratioed And turnout in Nevada, you could have a very similar outcome.
There are people on the internet right now on Twitter saying, very smart people who are watching turnout models saying, if things get wonky for Democrats, In some of these places, because remember, the thing I just warned about with Pennsylvania could happen to Democrats as well in Arizona and Nevada, where it lessens turnout if they get blasted early on on the East Coast.
That could influence the Senate race by one or two points.
That's a great insight.
So if they're just getting slammed by the time it gets out West, people might stay home.
That's the point.
I think if, because remember, Michigan is on Eastern Time.
So Michigan is not going to get called because they still count ballots for three weeks, but whatever.
And I'm being a little facetious, but it's not that facetious.
But if there's something that goes crazy, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, now North Carolina is the hope for Kamala Harris.
Virginia, New Hampshire.
The New Hampshire Libertarian Party just endorsed Trump tonight.
Totally unexpected.
Yeah, it's huge.
Because Elon Musk was like, I'd like Ron Paul to help reform the government with me.
That's pretty cool.
I think that's probably aided that decision.
That could influence, probably not Wisconsin, but certainly could influence New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada.
Eyes to watch.
And by the way, Carrie Lake can win if we have a big turnout.
If you're in Arizona, I want to hear from you.
Freedom at charliekirk.com.
Carrie Lake needs your vote.
Carrie Lake needs your vote and your activism, your energy, your spirit, all of that.
Okay, the woman beater is up on stage right now, Doug Emhoff.
And we have the MAGA rally.
By the way, the Trump jet has landed in Grand Rapids, just so we are clear.
The Trump jet has landed in Grand Rapids.
I want to memorialize a prediction that a friend of mine made.
You guys don't need to put it on screen.
I don't need to publish his name, but it's just a friend of mine.
I remember him because he was the first person to tell me how Donald Trump could win all the way back in 2015.
We would see the polls and it was like, I think he was responding to a poll that showed Trump only beating Hillary by five points in Mississippi or something.
And he told me, Blake, this poll is actually incredibly good for Trump.
Because if you look at national polls, he's still only losing to Hillary by like four or five points.
And if he's only beating her by five points in Mississippi, he's making that up somewhere.
I think he'll be really strong in every swing state.
And he was like, that's how he's going to win, Blake.
And then he told me he thought Trump could do it right before election night.
And he was the first person to message me.
He was telling me, Blake, the turnout in New Hampshire is insane.
All these hunters are coming out from the mountains and they're casting ballots and they haven't voted in the last 12 years.
And it's crazy.
He's like, I don't know if we're going to win the state, but this election...
He told me all this.
So I've always asked him, what's his read on it?
And one, he says he thinks we win tomorrow.
Close.
He says it's like half a percent in Pennsylvania is what he's estimating.
Has he made a prediction about Arizona?
He thinks we win Arizona, actually, like, pretty handily.
He thinks the signs are, like, black turnout's way down and that could be hard to pull.
But I wanted to memorialize this one because it's amazing.
All right.
And if it happens, it'll be great.
I know these type of guys, yeah.
He says, my most insane theory is there is a non-zero chance of Michigan being a massive, shocking pole miss because the Nation of Islam...
Is extremely anti-Kamala, massively so, and they are unpollable.
This is crazy.
Okay, so when we went to Georgia State, the Muslims.
When we went to Georgia State.
Not even Muslims, like the Nation of Islam.
Andrew, please, this is really interesting.
No, so we were at Georgia State, and Charlie's arguing with college kids.
I'm off on the side having a sidebar conversation.
And all these kids want MAGA hats.
And I kind of didn't believe them at first.
I was like, are you voting for Trump?
And they were like, yeah.
And I was like, cool.
So let's get a big picture.
We got this great picture with Charlie at the end with all these Muslim guys.
And I was like, well, what about your family, your congregations?
And they straight up said, it's 50-50.
And I go, 50-50 what?
And they said, 50% are supporting Trump, and then 50% are convinced that we need to get Jill Stein over 5% so that she gets on the debate stage next time.
So it's like 0% Kabbalah.
So when you take Dearborn, Michigan, where Trump all of a sudden is making it one of his campaign stops this last week, and he's getting endorsements from the Muslim community, It really is, like, one of those things that could shock the world.
But, by the way, if this is going all the way over to...
I mean, you've got Rashida Tlaib, who, by the way, did not endorse Kamala, right?
So she did not endorse Kamala.
And then, I'm just saying, like, you know, Minnesota, this could affect some house races, maybe, or something, right?
I don't know.
You know, I don't think any of us are probably Minnesota experts at this point, but who knows the ramifications of something like this?
Well, I mean, there's so many unknown pockets of voters, I think.
And that's what's like the funny thing about this.
The last minute, again, everything's gonna be hindsight 2020 after we come out of this election tomorrow and this next week, I should say, like after next Sunday, probably the week after that in Michigan.
But You have a bunch of pockets of voters that we know so little about how they feel in regards to Kamala Harris because of the timetable that the Democrats set for themselves.
And that is a really unique element to this election that I think has been unpolled, underpolled, underappreciated in this whole thing.
And I think what's going to be the ultimate outcome if Kamala gets blasted or even loses by a little bit, I think what they're going to say is, you know, we really the last minute nature of X, Y and Z.
And I can't help but think about how many people are going to immediately abandon ship on this whole thing for their they're trying to remake the entire Democrat Party because they're in a they're in a tailspin of talent.
Well, let's have that conversation once we win.
Right.
Well, well, and it's not just about winning, but even if they win, if they win, she's going to be arch hero.
It will be I mean, the country will be remade from a completely political standpoint.
Because the amount of animosity that exists between the sides and what they'll have to do to normal, sane, middle-of-the-road conservatives, even, center-right people, is it's either they're going to get on board or they're going to gangplank you out of this country.
And that's a scary part because we've already seen that.
We've seen how they've gone about that work.
It's going to get significantly worse if Kamala Harris becomes president.
I just have a lot more faith that I think the electorate, our side, understands that.
They're going to show up in big numbers tomorrow because that's what we need.
We need people to understand what we're up against, which is this is the most Marxist ticket that's ever been assembled ever in the history of the United States.
It's not even close.
Kamala Harris was the most liberal senator.
She outranked Bernie Sanders.
You have a guy in Tim Waltz who literally thinks that AOC is the coolest person in Congress.
Do you think it's the first ticket to not have three-digit IQ points?
By the way, speaking of trying to rally white suburban Philadelphia women, Oprah speaking.
Like I said, it's like Oprah did.
By the way, I'll take Rogan over Oprah.
I think she's lost some cachet with that whole group.
Well, she hasn't hosted a show in a decade.
Can we talk about...
They're pulling out all the stuff.
She's got her show.
Can we talk about John Ralston?
Yeah, sure.
So John Ralston is essentially the number one kind of data guy out of Nevada.
He's also really annoying.
We should log this.
His Twitter is so irritating.
He's incredibly partisan.
Yeah, he's a total partisan.
He's rooting for Team Blue all the way.
But he tends to do pretty honest data analysis.
Everybody looks at him as the authority.
He came out and made a call today, very narrow call, mind you, that Nevada's going to go 0.3% for Kamala Harris.
Now, another guy that does a lot of work, we've actually had him on the show, he works for the Las Vegas Review Journal.
Victor Jocks.
And so he's, you know, doesn't really, he's not a bomther or anything like that.
He may be conservative and I'm not sure, but...
He basically, and I want to throw these images up.
Let's go ahead and play, or throw up 74 here.
So he says, some perspective on the Nevada early voting numbers.
At this point in 2020, 447,000 D's had voted.
400,000 R's had voted.
So it was D plus 46 and change.
Today, only 362,000 Ds have voted.
And 405,000.
So we're up slightly over our 2020 numbers.
They're down almost 100,000.
That's a net 90K swing to ours.
Now, he's basically reacting to the Ralston prediction.
So go to the next image.
He basically says that...
For Ralston's numbers to be correct, he's like, there's got to be like 200,000 more mail ballots flocking from Clark.
Unlikely.
So he's basically saying at this point in 2020, Clark County had already submitted 87% of its ballots.
So if you extrapolate that out and say right now there's 87% of Clark County's mail-in ballots in, that would mean they're only getting up to 405,000 or a 53K ballot increase.
They're down by like 43,000 just in partisan reg in Nevada.
So, they're only going to get another 53,000 ballot increase, plus we're going to beat them day of, statewide.
So, I'm not exactly sure where Ralston extrapolated the numbers, Blake.
Some sketchy stuff.
Well, exactly.
So, this has got to be the...
Look, Nevada does do...
Dumb possibility that the same friend who points out the wacky nation of Islam hypothesis says...
What if Republican turnout numbers are slightly inflated because there were Democrats who switched to Republican to vote for Nikki Haley in the primaries?
Yeah, but the issue that exists, maybe, I mean, I don't think it's that many, though.
The issue that exists in Nevada and the reason why it would be less bullish on Nevada.
Oh, you mean in Nevada?
I mean, Nevada had an early primary.
Arizona, that would.
Yeah, but they didn't have a real primary.
But part of the reason why Nevada is so sketchy is because it's smaller.
And it's easier to manipulate.
And with the unions who are very well organized, and because they're all centrally located as well in Clark County, it just becomes a much...
It's not as great of a feat for them to turn out the numbers that they need to turn out in order to win the state per capita.
And they had the state Supreme Court allowed them to keep counting ballots for like four days afterwards, right?
So you have the same issue as Michigan.
Right.
So, I mean, but, and Tyler, you would know this, I mean, and we're active in CD3 in Nevada, which is sort of the southern tip of the state, up through western Vegas and Summerlin, up a little bit north of town, all the way to the border with California, right?
It's the most winnable with the most Republican votes that we need to chase that are low propensity.
Yeah, so we actually have our ballot chase program in Nevada 3.
And they're doing great, by the way.
They're hitting crazy goals.
Yeah, it was fantastic.
I've seen some of that.
So the question, though, is with no tax on tips, we got a Republican governor, Joe Lombardo, over the finish line in 2022, and you've got this...
Union fatigue with the Democrats nationwide, where unions are starting to break a little bit.
You've got guys like Steve Wynn.
You've got the Carano family.
You've got the Fertitta family.
There is some big-time Vegas casino muscle that's backing the conservative side.
By the way, Clark County is not that...
D-heavy.
No, it's not.
It can't be.
It's like 70% of the state.
No, what I'm saying is, it's like what?
What is it?
Registration of a D6? Yeah, but it's changed in recent.
Non-party affiliate has spiked.
Right.
And that's exactly where I was getting to.
So it's like we're seeing trends across the board that the indie votes are getting more red.
Maybe just slightly.
Maybe that won't hold out on election day.
But on election day, I've got to believe it's going to be even more red as we get closer.
So I'm just saying, I think Ralston is...
You know, maybe somebody's told him that the jig is up and the fix is in, in Nevada, and he's sort of just going with that because he knows he's going to be right and the numbers don't.
But everybody's pointing out that there's not a real defense of his numbers unless you get this deluge of 200,000 more vote-by-mail to really make up the deficit.
And those just aren't there in the numbers.
So do you, on the ground vibe, you think Nevada's going to go for Trump?
I mean, I will say the rurals have roared, and that's been big.
Because I always thought we could squeeze another 5-10% of turnout out of the rurals, and that seems to be the case this year.
And I would say that it's a working class.
It's the perfect makeup of a state that would love Trump.
It really is.
Not a huge college-educated population, a lot of muscular class, a lot of working class, and it's always been the reed machine with the union that has kept that state blue in recent decades.
But I will tell you that from a vibe standpoint on the ground, that state is super pro-Trump.
But they call Vegas Los Angeles East now.
You know what I mean?
So it's definitely a changing.
I will tell you this.
Again, I'll go back to what we were just talking about just a few minutes ago.
I think if you have a North Carolina solid win by Trump, if you have a Pennsylvania that looks like Trump is doing really well, I think that's going to have some influence and it's going to get some excitement going in Nevada.
We are good friends with a lot of the folks that are in Nevada.
We had just a great event that was there.
There was a ton of energy that we had in that room that was with us.
The people on the ground in Clark County are saying this is that they want this really bad.
They have been working.
They've been turning out.
They've been doing some of the program.
And I want to point to Mojave County real quickly for you, because this is really interesting.
Bullhead City, Laughlin, adjacent.
So Mojave County, which is in the outskirts of Las Vegas, it's in Arizona, we have had a huge influx of low propensity voters that have turned out.
Now, again, Arizona has way more of a history and a culture of early voting by mail.
You don't have that same thing in Nevada.
However, you have the same type of people that exist in the outskirts of Las Vegas as you have in Mojave County.
Mojave County is on pace to have a record turnout for a presidential.
They had a very low turnout, which is typical in rurals across the United States.
but you have a lower turnout per capita, it's harder to get people in.
They usually vote in person, things like that.
If that type of similar sentiment holds where we've seen such great early by mail voting happening because there's more excitement happening in the rurals of Las Vegas, you have to assume that you're looking at Mesquite.
You're looking at some of these other places that have- Elko.
And really, I mean, the outskirts of Las Vegas, more of Southern Nevada, where there's actually a lot of people on CD3, right?
That whole stretch, it's a lot of rural Nevada, that people are going to be very excited and that we could see some of that reflected turnout tomorrow, which would really help Trump.
I want to thank our members, members.charliekirk.com, members.charliekirk.com.
Just to remember, yard signs do not win elections.
Some people say, Charlie, there's so many Harris Wall signs in Salt Lake City.
Is she going to win Utah?
She will not win Utah.
Right, Tyler?
She will not win Utah.
She will not.
Even Governor Cox isn't endorsing her.
And so that's your sign.
She will not win Utah.
When Spencer Cox isn't endorsed Kamala Harris after Mitt Romney demands he does.
If Kamala wins Utah, I will eat my shoe.
All right.
Members.CharlieKirk.com.
Members.CharlieKirk.com.
I want to thank you guys.
Daisy is sending us.
By the way, we're waiting for the last MAGA rally.
Donald Trump has landed.
Somebody emailed us.
They said, Charlie, I want to see Oprah at the MAGA rally.
No, no, no.
I had to be more clear.
Oprah is at the Kamala rally.
Okay?
Oprah is not at the MAGA rally.
Yeah.
I know you might be confused because Trump and Oprah used to be friends, but no.
And just a reminder, everybody, this is what our night tomorrow is going to be like.
God willing, we'll be celebrating at this time tomorrow night, but don't get your hopes up.
But maybe we will.
It's going to take some time.
I think it's going to take some...
It's either going to be a very late night or...
I think it's going to be some shovel work.
Or some early morning.
Or if we pop...
If it goes long, I am ready to go until 10 a.m.
tomorrow and then I'll pass out and tag team out.
You mean the next?
You mean Wednesday.
Wednesday.
Yeah, whatever.
It's like flying home from Tokyo.
It's like you lose what day it is.
It's been four years.
I want to thank Jim, Suzanne, David, Jazlyn, Margaret, Walter.
You guys get a signed hat.
Members.CharlieKirk.com.
Tom, can we have a picture in picture of even just the room feed if we can, guys?
And by the way, Jack is landing soon.
Donald Trump has landed in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
He is on the ground in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Donald Trump is.
This is the final rally, guys.
This is it.
The final MAGA rally happening live on Real America's Voice.
Yes?
It's the last MAGA rally because after this, America will be great.
It'll be the...
It'll be Keep America Great.
Kaga rallies.
I mean, what, you know, if there is an actual, and I know, I'm not trying to put any cart before the horse here.
I really am not.
Do not get complacent.
But if there is a distinct, definitive win, what do you think, I mean, that could mean for the country?
I mean, do you think people will rally behind it?
Will there be a moment of peace?
Do you think they still riot and screech like banshees?
I will say thank you, God, and will enjoy what happens.
I'm going to tell you this.
If fans riot in their own streets when their team wins the World Series, I think it's to be expected that when their candidate that was not of their choice wins, they're probably the same types of personalities who are probably going to riot.
Well, I think they will.
I think you're right.
I think they're ready to...
But you remember that Molly Ball article where there was that one very telling piece, which I always thought should have been an absolute indictment of the American left.
People literally should have been indicted.
No, they should have.
But what happened was, because it was close, the gatekeepers, the puppeteers, called all their foot soldiers and said, don't riot.
Be peaceful.
And there was this moment of calm after the election in 2020 where we were expecting something crazy to happen.
And guess why it didn't?
It's not because the Republicans or the conservatives told their people not to riot.
No, because that wasn't even a thing.
It was because the Democrats told their foot soldiers not to write.
And I always thought that was the most damning admission from that Molly Ball article in 2020.
How they did it.
The cabal.
That's right.
We are getting so many emails, by the way, of first-time voters that didn't vote in 2020.
And they're old.
They're not like newly registered 18-year-old voters.
I'm talking about thousands and thousands of first-time voters.
The electorate has changed to favor us, guys.
A lot of people sat out 2020 and saw the destruction and have come back into the ranks.
A lot of people.
There are a lot of people who expose themselves.
What I like about this election that we haven't talked enough about, and I hope we'll talk about it a lot, the people who were frauds in 2020, who pretended like they just kind of sat back, they didn't really do anything, and they were secretly helping Joe Biden in the background, they were forced to come out in public this time.
This is a really interesting piece to this election versus 2020.
COVID and the hidden politic that was happening in the background in America was not exposed.
It forced so many people to come out of the dark spaces and people who claimed that they were Republican or people who claimed that they were either or now came out as pro-Kamala people and most people that are common sense went, Wait, what?
Really?
That guy?
This?
What?
No.
And that has forced a lot of the people who were not sure or they didn't really like Trump or whatever, I think, to actually come back and say, you know what?
I was so focused and so hung up on personality.
I didn't realize the personality of all these people who were talking was bad.
And it's really leveled the playing field quite a bit because you now have people who are claiming to be Republicans now exposed as Democrats.
You now have people who thought they were Democrats or moderate or independents going, I'm more Republican and tomorrow will be the judgment day where we determine who wins.
Is it the elitists who are trying to control you that were pretending to be something that they were not?
Or is it going to be the American individual that this country, this republic, was founded upon?
They're going to speak up and they're going to elect a president by the good graces of the electoral college.
That means we're dependent on these few states that's going to usher in a people's president.
And I think that that's what Trump really is, is the people's president.
I'll never forget during the Bobby Kennedy endorsement rally, which we produced.
Game changer.
It was a huge game changer.
That'll go down, man.
A lot of fun.
It was one of the coolest things I've ever done.
Yeah, very, very cool to be a part of that and to see it so up close.
But, Charlie, you went up there and you said, this is a question about whether or not we are going to fulfill the founder's vision for this country.
And you said, because in America it's a simple deal.
What the people want, the people get.
Yes.
And if that ceases to be the case, then we're in real trouble.
And I do think that that is really on the ballot.
And I think you go to this Joe Rogan endorsement of Donald Trump tonight, I genuinely think one of the main things for Joe Rogan and so many other Americans, including Bobby Kennedy, this is something he's brought up time and time again, Is this idea of censorship and how they want to control us, kind of to what you're talking about, Tyler.
The master, the elite, controlling what the people think, whether it be by color revolution, domestic color revolution, censorship, industrial complex, whether it just be by advertisers, boycotting conservatives.
You know, we've been up against so much, and what could happen tomorrow if we're successful, if we show up, could be a reversal of so many of these trends, so many of these headwinds that we've been fighting for the last nine years.
And I certainly hope our movement shows up.
I certainly think we're poised for a successful day if we show up, because, you know, I think the numbers are there, the raw material's there, and we certainly can get this over the top.
Okay.
Members.CharlieKirk.com.
Members.CharlieKirk.com.
That is the last MAGA rally right there at Van Andel Arena.
It is happening.
Trump has landed.
He is on his way.
I don't know if they're doing a pre-program before.
Donald Trump wanted it to be known as the Midnight Rally.
And he's getting his wish, by the way.
Donald Trump in the last MAGA rally here.
12 minutes away from midnight at that location.
Yeah.
And by the way, we're only two hours behind the East Coast instead of the usual three hours here as we are in Phoenix, Arizona.
Daisy has sent me more names.
I want to thank Trey, Gigi, Michelle, Joseph, Jim, Jim, Susan, and Walter, members.charliekirk.com.
That is members.charliekirk.com.
I've got to give them instruction, Charlie, for leaving.
Yeah, why don't you do that?
Yeah, so, Daisy, correct me if I'm wrong, but what we're going to be doing for our election night coverage, because it's going to be going on during the entire night, if you want to leave a message that will get played on the air...
And you're a member, so if you're signing up tonight at members.charliekirk.com, go to the site, sign in, and there's an option where you can actually leave a voicemail, and we will use it during the show.
So we have a team that's going to be listening to them all.
If they're good, no swear words, because we don't really have a lot of extra bandwidth, unless it's really good and we want to mute out a swear word.
Don't risk it.
But if it's a good message, we're going to play it live on air.
Get the pulse of you, the grassroots across the country.
But you've got to be a member in order to participate in that.
We're going to be playing them throughout the show tomorrow night and throughout the stream.
So be a part of that at members.charliekirk.com.
You can join right now.
Charlie's going to send you a hat.
He's got Mount MAGA here as we're waiting for the Trump rally.
It keeps growing and building.
And yes, Charlie does really sign them.
And by the way, one of the things you don't do a good enough job mentioning, look at that.
I know.
It's a beautiful hat, by the way.
This is a one-of-a-kind hat right here because it's got the turning point swoosh.
That swoosh, by the way, it's a great story.
Can I tell you what?
Now that we're doing story time, we're waiting for the rally here.
Tyler knows.
Who made the swoosh?
Our good friend, Paul Romanowski.
He killed himself, unfortunately.
I remember when he first did it.
We were sitting with Bill Montgomery, also may he rest in peace, in the Lamont office.
He was like, what do you want?
I said, well, because he was super creative.
He was an actual artist.
Tyler loved him.
Tyler saw his talent way more than I did.
He wanted to move out to Arizona.
He would have been so good.
It pains me every day that we didn't bring him out here fast.
It's an awful story.
However, his legacy, and this is literally what he told me, because he wasn't as a graphic designer, he would capture your vision, and he's an artist.
He was an actual artist.
And I was like, I don't know, man, I want it to be like, we're in one direction, we want to take a right turn, and we want to go from blue to red.
He's like, okay, okay.
And so, he comes up with this.
And I think it's fair to say this is one of the most recognized political symbols in the country, is it not?
Now it is, yeah.
And he told me, like, before he killed himself, like months beforehand, he was like, man, it's one of the coolest things I've ever done in my life.
I hope it gets seen by, like, all of humanity.
And it has.
So I just want to say, Paul, if anyone knows who Paul is or his family, he was super loved and appreciated that we think of him every day.
All the time.
So in honor of Paul, if you become a member, you get the exclusive Turning Point MAGA hat, which I think is super cool, actually.
And I wish we had the Benny videos, because it was great seeing everybody...
Yeah, we posted it today.
Yeah, it was great seeing everybody wear that in downtown Atlanta.
It's like the MAGA hat with the turning point swoosh.
Can we call it a swoosh?
It's the Nike swoosh.
By the way, you know what's so funny?
I got a tip from somebody that they're changing the Nike swoosh.
It hasn't been reported publicly yet.
No way.
That's insane.
That would be an insane thing to do.
That'd be lunacy.
Whoever does that should be executed.
Wasn't the lady that came up with it?
She was paid like 15 bucks for her or something.
We'll see if my sources are any good.
By the way, another thing that's going to happen at midnight to watch for if Trump doesn't is...
Dixville Notch will vote at midnight.
So I'm told there actually will be a Trump voter at Dixville Notch.
I've seen there is one Trump voter.
Explain to the audience Dixville Notch.
By the way, Trump should be taking the stage any minute.
I need to go to New Hampshire again.
I haven't been there in a while.
So Dixville Notch is a very tiny hamlet in northern New Hampshire.
I think there's like a ski lodge there and a few people just live next to it.
And by tradition in Dixville Notch, that's a great town name by the way, is they've cultivated this tradition that the handful of residents in the village meet at midnight on election day and immediately cast their ballots so that they can be the first place in the nation to vote.
And they do it for both the primary and the general election.
So some context, in 2016 there were eight voters there and they voted four for Hillary, two for Trump, one for Gary Johnson, and one for Willard Mitt Romney.
In 2020, there were only five voters.
There were five votes for Joe Biden.
How did it go in 2016?
In 2016, it was Hillary for four, Trump two, Johnson, yeah.
And then Romney still got one.
And Obama and Mitt split five-five in the general in 2012.
2020, though, they went five for Biden, zero for Trump.
So, if we have at least one Trump voter...
He's going to do a press conference.
This is such a narcissist.
This guy's going to do a whole...
He's going to take questions.
They had six people vote in the GOP primary.
All of them voted for Nikki Haley.
It gives you a little idea of the demographic at Dixville Notch.
Is it Dixville, right?
Dixville Notch.
It means absolutely nothing, for the record.
Quiet.
It means everything if we win this.
Watch Trump win every single week.
What's really interesting is they had 20 people there in 1984.
Now they're down to like four or six.
It's sad.
It's the decline.
In 1992, yeah, they had 15 people vote for George H.W., eight for Ross Perot, five for Andre Maru, a person I have never heard of, and only two for Bill Clinton.
Man, old-time New Hampshire was the greatest.
Come back, kid.
Wait, wait, wait.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I misread that.
1984, they had 29 people that voted for Reagan and one for Mondale.
They had 30 people.
That town was bumping.
Yeah, well, 29 for Reagan and one for Mondale.
Dixville was off the hook.
That actually just reflects the actual national voting numbers.
I know, but they had 30 people.
Now they have six.
What's going on there?
They're just people buying, consolidating properties or something?
They're eating each other.
It's a...
Cannibalization.
Cannibalization.
They're cannibalizing their election day vote.
That's why Trump is speaking out so frequently about...
Cannibalization.
Cannibal electors.
Okay, so we have eyes on the last MAGA rally here.
Email us, as always, freedom at charliekirk.com and subscribe to our podcast.
Open up your podcast application and type in Charlie Kirk Show.
We have a great program for you guys all day tomorrow.
We are going to be doing our three-hour show, a couple-hour break, and then boom, around like 5-ish, 5.30 Eastern.
Hey, Blake, why don't you break down when do polls close tomorrow?
Just remind people.
All right.
We've done all this research, right?
Yeah, yeah, of course.
I'll bring up the map, too.
There's a few states that close really early.
The first ones you'll see places in Indiana and places in Kentucky.
Like 6 Eastern or 7 Eastern?
Like 5 Eastern.
What?
I know.
It's really...
I'm just going to bring up the map so I don't screw any of them up.
It's not 5 Eastern.
There are definitely 5 Eastern.
No, we talked about it.
There's places like...
Okay, 6 Eastern.
Sorry.
Sorry!
You're just so judgy on me, Charlie.
Because I hold you a higher standard, okay, Blake?
Okay, okay.
Six Eastern, we're going to have closures.
You know every Roman emperor, okay?
You should know when Paul's closed.
So they'll have some closures in Indiana, and some closures in Eastern Kentucky.
And so that's where you'll see the first places, and you'll see the press will come on, and they'll call Indiana and Kentucky for Trump immediately, and it'll be great.
And New York closes the same time Arizona does.
Yeah, exactly.
It's bizarre.
It's so stupid.
The first real important closure is 7 p.m.
Eastern, Florida, Georgia, Virginia.
Okay, so let's go through Georgia.
Hold on one second.
How is Georgia counting their votes this year differently than other years?
They say they have the Florida-fication.
They said they Florida-fied, not Florida-fied, Florida-fied their elections.
I don't know full details on this.
Meaning that they have to count their...
Are they pre-canvassing early votes, what they're doing, Tyler?
I believe so.
I unfortunately do not have the inside track, but we will tomorrow be happy to bring in our pros, our election pros from Georgia.
Yeah, Josh McCoon.
Our staff and Josh McCoon, who we're hoping has a great day tomorrow.
Josh is optimistic.
Josh has texted me some great figures.
He likes what he's seeing.
He is definitely optimistic.
Okay, I've got it.
So in 2021, that Georgia law that they lost the All-Star Game for because it ended democracy and turned them into a totalitarian police state.
And so all of that.
The police state law that they passed.
The police state law that they passed.
So they're allowed.
They made the law explicit that they can begin processing their mail ballots two weeks before Election Day.
Yeah.
And I think they were allowed to do it by emergency in 2020, but a lot of places didn't.
So it's more actually developed now.
It's codified.
And then, I believe, are they also allowed to count through the night more consistently?
Yeah, so Georgia did pass a similar law to Arizona, which is that they must keep counting.
So Georgia and Arizona, because they both had Republican-held legislatures, unlike some other places in the country where we saw this, the counting stopped.
So remember, I don't want to give everyone PTSD that's listening right now, but we remember that the counting stopped.
They did pass laws in Georgia and Arizona both saying that you must keep counting.
You cannot stop.
I'm looking here.
Michigan has the most changes of the swing states in terms of...
Not for the good.
So jurisdictions with more than 5,000 people can now begin processing their mail ballots up to eight days before Election Day.
So that would possibly speed it up.
Let's see.
Looking through this.
They have expanded in-person early voting, which might have turned out to help us, hopefully.
And I guess they could feed, they made it so their early ballots could go directly into like a scanner rather than having to be stored.
So we might get results faster from Michigan if nothing else, even if other changes are stuff we don't care for.
So, one sec.
Members.CharlieKirk.com.
That is Members.CharlieKirk.com.
So, it's fair to say...
By the way, we're waiting for the Trump take the stage.
It's fair to say that we will get the final verdict in Georgia by like 10 Eastern.
We'll be pretty close.
And then Pennsylvania...
I didn't understand what Cliff was saying very much.
And I was dealing with some other issues.
They don't pre-canvas.
They do pre-canvas.
They don't.
They canvas.
Well, canvas is a different word.
Canvas has a different meaning.
Count.
Do they pre-count?
They pre-count, yeah.
They start counting during the day tomorrow.
Yes.
Okay, that's different than pre-canvassing, though, where...
In Arizona, it's a full canvas.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, no.
Canvas means that's the final stamp on the...
But in Arizona, they're pre-counting, meaning that...
Pre-counting.
Right now, Stephen Richard knows who's winning in the early vote.
That's correct.
You just can't release...
But it releases as soon as polls close, right?
That's correct.
So at 8.15, he just uploads the data to the Secretary of State's website, and it populates all the websites.
That's correct.
So I voted on Friday.
He has my vote in his system.
And again, just for everybody's...
Canvas means that that's like the official tally.
But in Pennsylvania, they don't start opening envelopes until tomorrow.
That's what Cliff said.
Okay, which means what is the order of operations then for counting in Pennsylvania tomorrow?
So they should have a more similar type of a situation...
Remember, Pennsylvania is in better shape because they have far greater counties.
So part of the reason why Arizona is a mess is because we have far fewer counties and Maricopa County is huge.
Part of the reason why Nevada is a mess, Clark County is huge.
So you have, in Pennsylvania, much greater spread, same with Wisconsin.
Where it's easier for the counties to process all those ballots in a timely fashion.
And so that is happening where the counting is starting tomorrow early, which is just in a few hours, really, probably they're starting that process so that hopefully by the time that the polls close, they will have an initial tally of how many votes will be cast. they will have an initial tally of how many votes However, I am sure, and I don't know, Cliff could probably tell us and we'll find out tomorrow.
I'm sure there will be some counties that are not done processing votes by the time that polls close.
So, just to be clear, I remember this story when it came out, because Washington Post tried to blame Pennsylvania, and we had Sean Parnell.
I do remember this.
Yeah, come on.
So, here's how it works.
This is according to the Washington Post.
The count officially begins at 7 a.m.
on Election Day.
Yep.
So this is like if they've sent in their ballots week before and drop boxes and mailboxes.
Pennsylvania allows early voting by mail, so thousands of ballots sealed in double envelopes arrive days or weeks ahead of time.
In Philadelphia, for example, they store them in a 230,000 square foot brick building on the northeast edge of the city.
Workers send the envelopes through a sorting machine, which separates them by precincts, stamps the date, time, and scans for signature.
It says, The other battleground is Wisconsin.
Yep.
Okay, so in Arizona, like at 8.30 local, we'll have all the early votes that happened from Monday previous.
Yeah.
And every county, is that right?
Yeah.
So Fontes has collected every county at this point.
It gets reported, yeah.
It's a contest at 8 p.m.
By 8 p.m., we should have that.
Okay, and then election day votes will begin to trickle in.
But that comes at different frequencies.
Yeah.
But the counties don't aggregate those.
They just send them in as they have them on election day.
Yeah, they give a report basically hourly.
And then drops come after that.
What do you mean by drops?
That's people that showed up to a polling place and put their ballot in a box, because those have to be driven down to the central county place, not counted in the precinct or the voting center.
That's different than, like, in person.
If you actually go and vote in person, because they're actually counting your votes on an SD card.
Right, so that's if you fill your ballot out at home and you go to a polling center and drop it off.
That gets counted later.
Yeah.
And not only that, but late mail, too.
Right.
And there's a lot of illegality with late mail.
Well, meaning, when I say late mail, I mean mail that was received before 7 p.m.
on Election Day, but that was delivered over the weekend that they still haven't processed.
Right.
So there will be late Pima mail.
There will be late Maricopa mail.
There will be late Pinal mail.
The late Pima and Apache mail is what Kerry's got to look out for, where they just lie on postmark stuff.
Yeah.
I'm just being honest.
Yeah, we'll get into it.
We'll save some of the fun surprises.
But anyway, so then in North Carolina, what is the reporting procedure in North Carolina?
Does anybody know?
We can find out.
So what we do know is that they're one of the three states that close at 7.30.
7.30 Eastern.
So they close at a half hour.
So West Virginia, Ohio, and North Carolina all will be closing at 7.30 p.m.
Eastern.
Yep, 7.30.
By law, polls close at 7.30.
So they're on the half hour.
So you have the East...
Dixfield Notch is voting these narcissists.
Yeah, it's kind of fake because you basically...
It's so fake.
People realize that...
This guy's doing a press conference.
You can just buy their crap.
You're just a random guy near Canada.
You're not that important.
I'm sorry.
Nothing is predictive or determinative.
Right, Andrew?
You know what?
I think they should pass a law in New Hampshire to force Dixfield Notch to vote by mail.
Like, that's not the first frickin'...
No, that is true.
That's actually so smart.
It's not the first ballot cast.
I know.
Someone voted yesterday in New Hampshire.
First ballots cast in Dixville-Notch, New Hampshire.
Like, give a life.
By the way, we should recognize it is now on the East Coast.
It is Election Day.
By the way, we have been waiting four flipping years for today.
Hold on, hold on.
I just want to make one point in North Carolina.
Well, technically because it took them three months to count the election last time, it's really been like three years and nine months.
It's going to take them four days after the election to count all their ballots.
See what a third world country would be.
These narcissists.
I really think Trump's a threat to my son.
There's like six of you.
Who cares?
You guys are a threat to geriatrics.
Just really quick.
We just said this, so I just want to make it very clear.
If you're listening in North Carolina, if you are in line...
At 7.30, by law, they have to let you vote.
Okay?
So, if you get in line by 7.30, you are allowed to vote.
There's a lot of funny business on what it means to get in line.
There's been a lot of lawsuits on this.
This is more funny business because the state board there has the authority to extend voting hours beyond 7.30.
Now, this is where we see a lot of shenanigans late, too, right?
If it's close...
Different counties are holding back their vote, all of a sudden they'll extend.
You can count on this, take it to the bank.
They're going to extend voting hours in Fulton County or DeKalb.
Also, we should sue in Maricopa to have extra hours in Maricopa and Pinal if there's any funny business.
I'm happy to tell you, I believe that if there is any funny business, there is a lawsuit ready to go.
Good, so we don't have to fiddle around all day long for that?
We're not going to be...
Good for Josh.
It took us 12 hours to get a lawsuit.
If the machines and the printers don't work, we have a lawsuit ready to go.
We have a tremendous lawyer who...
Good.
Is in constant communication.
Let's not bury the lead there.
Let's not spoil anything.
We'll save it for tomorrow.
Yeah.
There's a lot.
We've got to keep everyone on the edge of their seats.
We have so much fun stuff.
People are asking, Charlie, or why are you not...
Can we please have the rally in the upper right-hand corner, guys?
The RAV logo is over it.
There are no speakers right now at the rally.
People say, Charlie, why are you not showing the rally?
There's just been...
If you want to listen to a fan of the opera, we'll put that on, okay?
That's what's going on right now.
Where's Bobby McNeely?
This is not...
Oh, that's right.
No.
It's a different channel.
All right.
How about this?
All right.
Members.CharlieKirk.com.
I want to keep on signing hats for you guys.
Andrew has them right here.
Andrew, give them to me.
What's going on in North Carolina tomorrow?
What can we expect?
Well, so basically, I'm looking up the rules here.
It says...
Ballots that will be counted and reported by the end of election night include ballots cast by voters during the early voting period.
This does not include provisional ballots, which must be researched during the canvas period to determine voter eligibility.
So in 2020, 65% of North Carolina voters cast their ballot during early voting.
All absentee ballots received by the county board of election before the start of election day.
Third bucket.
All ballots cast on election day from the state's 2,600 plus precincts.
This does not include provisional ballots.
So, what ballots will not be counted on Election Day?
They basically say 98% of North Carolina is going to be counted.
And every tally that night will be technically unofficial, but we should have an idea who's going to win it.
Absentee ballots received on Election Day will not be counted.
Military and overseas citizen absentee ballots arrive by mail at County Board of Election Offices from Election Day through 5 p.m.
on November 14th.
We're going to have...
November 14th.
The Uokawa votes could end up being very determined.
This is a very important thing for those listening at home that we're going to be discussing a lot over the next coming days.
Don't even get into it now, but just a little bit.
Is Uokawa votes, which are our uniformed officer...
Which Tyler has been obsessed over.
You were flagging this like eight months ago.
I was pulling the alarm, right?
And our rubble, the green alarm, and begging the RNC to take it seriously.
And this is something that we're going to be talking a lot about.
So get used to hearing that term, Yeo Kava vote.
Yeo Kava.
Yeo Kava.
Thankfully the requests are really down this year.
They're way down from COVID though.
They are down.
They're down by like 70% versus COVID. But if you guys want to talk about how we could win states in the future, we could ballot chase in Israel.
We could ballot chase in Germany and find a bunch of conservatives that live there.
That's a separate issue.
Here's something that's more newsy.
Well, and I'll just say this to pin this.
Yochava stands for Uniformed and Overseas Citizen Absentee Voting Act.
Because Foster Freeze would shoot us if we used that.
No, that's right.
You have to explain every actor.
Uniformed and Overseas Ballots.
So that's what it stands for.
Sorry, go ahead.
No, it's good.
For 2024 only, certain absentee ballots dropped off by voters from the 25 counties affected by Hurricane Helene.
Helene?
I always forget.
By the way, it's still impacting Western North Carolina turnout.
Yeah, exactly.
That's why I bring it up.
It's a problem.
Or early voting sites outside the voters' home counties as permitted by NC Session Law 2024-51.
Must have just been passed.
All provisional ballots will not be counted.
So, basically, we're looking at a timeline of 8.30pm to 1am, counties report election day precinct results to the election results dashboard.
So, yeah, by 9.30pm Eastern, precinct poll workers hand-deliver election day results to county board of election offices between 8.30pm and 1am Eastern, counties report election day precinct results.
So, in theory, we should have 98% of the vote counted in North Carolina with an unofficial tally by no later than 1 a.m.
Eastern, which would be 11 o'clock Mountain Time, Arizona.
I mean, look, we're going to know a lot very quickly.
Wisconsin, Tyler, what is the order of operations for Wisconsin?
So Wisconsin has, just as was mentioned before, they have a similar process to Pennsylvania, which again, and it's actually really interesting because Wisconsin and Pennsylvania share something very similar, not only from a Midwestern standpoint.
but also from the fact that it's a large population spread, not concentrated in one place.
And Charlie brought this up.
Pennsylvania is the same.
We have a, they have far fewer absentee ballots that have been turned in than like a state like Arizona and certainly Pennsylvania.
That's just much larger.
So you're dealing with hundreds of thousands of votes that have already been turned in, not millions of votes, which is a good thing because that means those can get processed.
They start processing them tomorrow early in the morning in the individual counties.
The counties are much smaller, so it's much more manageable.
And then they have a huge day of historical voting culture.
So most people vote in person.
They know the place.
It's been the same place in their town.
Every little town in Wisconsin has all the same stuff.
You have a school.
You have a pub.
You have a post office.
And everyone goes to the same place for voting.
A church.
Your churches.
A few churches.
That is it.
So that's small town Wisconsin culture.
And there's some rural places in Wisconsin that are extremely blue.
There's some rural places in Wisconsin now that are extremely red.
And then there's some really purple areas that are all dependent on turnout.
And, you know, southern Wisconsin right now, where we have all eyes on what's going to happen in the southern part of Wisconsin, that corridor that comes from Chicago up to Milwaukee.
Racine is right in there, right in the mix that we have all eyes on.
You have, can the Republicans turn out just a little bit more or Democrats turn out a little bit less?
Around Madison and Dane County.
And then what's going to happen in what we call the Milwaukee Wow Counties.
Which stands for Waukesha, Ozaukee, and Washington County.
So you have Milwaukee County, Waukesha, Ozaukee, and Washington.
I have spent literally half my life there.
I have missed, again, in another year, so many of my kids' games and milestones.
