Why Montana Matters + Hurricane Helene

Hey everybody, it's the Charlie Kirk Show. Amazing voter registration trends that favor Trump and Republicans. Something is happening in the Western world that is favoring our movement. We also talk about Hurricane Helene and why I'm in Montana. Email us as always, freedom at charliekirk.com and become a member today. Members.charliekirk.com. That is members.charliekirk.com. Buckle up everybody. Here we go. Charlie, what you've done is incredible here. Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus. I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks. I want to thank Charlie. He's an incredible guy. His spirit, his love of this country. He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA. We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

We have Blake Neff with us. Blake, how are you doing? We're doing great. We are here in beautiful Missoula, Montana, to support Tim Sheehy in his quest to defeat Jon Tester. We're going to go into that race in great detail. But first, Blake, I want to walk through the urgent and terrible news of what's happening in Georgia, North Carolina, and parts of Virginia. Hurricane Helene. And it's less of the hurricane and more of the flooding that ensued because of it.

Exactly, exactly. So Hurricane Helene, I think it made landfall as a Category 4 storm, so very powerful. But in contrast to a lot of hurricanes, it wasn't so much the wind damage, you know, that it...

blew everything over. What happened is it went deep into the interior, more so than a lot of hurricanes do. So it got way up into the mountainous areas of North Carolina, northern Georgia, even eastern Tennessee, dumped a ton of rain. And obviously with these mountainous areas, what you get is all the water rushes down into pretty narrow areas and causes massive flooding. There's been some viral photographs where you can see entire highways just, they look like it's a river suddenly.

And obviously it's done tons of damage. I think over 100 people dead confirmed, which is I think the most we've had from a hurricane in quite a few years. Yeah. And it's a flooding situation and primarily hitting Georgia, western North Carolina and southwestern Virginia. Right now, Donald Trump is on his way to Valdosta, Georgia, to offer relief and aid.

This is a growing and developing situation. And it is important to not politicize moments like this. However, if Kamala Harris were to become president...

understand she is a DEI believer. She's a zealot in race-based type redistribution and aid. And I want to play this piece of tape here, which is from Kamala Harris talking about situations like this, saying that, well, black communities are actually impacted by natural disasters more than white communities, which is, which is

totally not correct. It is, there's nothing to support this or there's no basis for this. Let's play cut 22. It is our lowest income communities and our communities of color that are most impacted by these extreme conditions and impacted by issues that are not of their own making. And so when...

Absolutely. And so we have to address this in a way that is about giving resources based on equity, understanding that we fight for equality, but we also need to fight for equity, understanding not everyone starts out at the same place. And if we want people to be in an equal place, sometimes we have to take into account those disparities and do that work. Thank you.

Much like COVID, the weather does not care about your skin color. Now, understand this is an older clip, but this is a picture and a window into her sinister ideology. So, Blake, do we have a president right now? And secondly, this is creepy and scary stuff. Kamala Harris's ideology is one that we're going to administer aid based on.

characteristics. Exactly, exactly. So there was a viral clip over the weekend, I'm sure we have it, where Joe Biden is on the tarmac and someone asks him, do you have anything to say about strikes in Lebanon, or in Yemen? Yemen. So there have been airstrikes there, as there have been in a lot of the Middle East recently. And maybe he misheard it, but he apparently thought they were asking about this labor, the port strike that might be happening on the coast. Which is a big thing coming, by the way. They're like, strikes in Yemen. He's like, I've talked to both sides of these strikes.

you know i believe in you know organized labor negotiations we're going to get it done and

Okay, yeah, maybe he misheard it, but you should have a president who's aware of what's going on. And this really is the evolution of ruling by committee. Yes. Meaning that there's like 10 or 12 people effectively running our government. It's like Jake Sullivan, Ron Klain. It is the deterioration of the idea of a singular executive. Yeah, and so you don't have the elected president in charge anymore.

And even then, it's really not even necessarily his cabinet secretary is running things. It's chief of staff. It's aides. It's people almost no one can name unless they're, you know, reading a Politico newsletter every single day. And then beneath that, yeah, you have Kamala, who, one, we know is not a great executive because if she was, they would literally let her do something and they didn't. They were never letting her do anything.

And as you see, her ideology is to give speeches on how, well, when we're responding to a hurricane, which I checked, I think this is the deadliest one in the U.S. since Katrina. Yeah, and growing, by the way. Yeah, and she believes that the aid that you offer should be doled out, as you say, based on characteristics like skin color rather than destruction. Yes, and I just want to read this again. It's tempting to say the federal government's doing nothing. I mean, they're doing something. They did issue some warnings. However, this is definitely being underplayed by the media.

That is 100% fair. This is not, they're not calling this a crisis. Well, they sort of are. It's not the level of crisis, for example, of George Floyd. Is it fair to say that there was more media attention? Slightly more, I'd say. And which one has caused more human, well, the reaction of George Floyd caused a lot of human suffering.

The actual incident itself. So let me just read this. This is from a friend in North Carolina. This stuff in Western North Carolina is getting really, really bad. As more people get back to service, we're hearing all kinds of stories. Bodies in ditches, bodies floating down rivers, people having babies in homes with no power. 90% of some counties without power. Feds are doing nothing. This is their claim on the ground. Dem governor is doing quote, all caps, nothing.

We need to do everything we can. Understand 90% of the impacted voters here are Republican voters. Makes you wonder if they're being forgotten for a reason. I am donating XYZ dollars, and there's a suggestion to try to do here. There's 100 dead as of today. Literally just heard from a buddy who saw bodies in a ditch. It's going to be huge. Now, this also begs a question, though, Blake. We've spent $250 billion on this proxy war in Ukraine.

We obviously disagree with that, but it seems like the urgency in D.C. is abstractions abroad and foreign conflicts. We have an urgent situation here in the homeland. Maybe we could come up with some explanation that this hurricane was, like, sent by Putin and then they would actually care a bit more for the mullahs in Iran. I saw one tweet of someone saying that...

the mayor of Asheville needs to go wear a jumpsuit with a black t-shirt and he's going to get $200 billion. Maybe shave like five inches off his height too. And just kind of be like half, half shaved. So the situation here also impacts, and I hate to get to the politics of this though, Blake, this is within the two states that might determine the entire presidential election. Very true. Very true.

So tell us about that. It matters in two ways, which is one, yes, as you say, Georgia, we've known as a swing state all along. North Carolina has become a swing state. Largely because of Mark Robinson. Yes, and it's polling closer actually now than Arizona and Georgia have been. I think possibly because we just weren't as focused on it initially. And now you have...

So on the one hand, you have, if there's the perception that, you know, Kamala is off fundraising in San Francisco and that Biden is...

not really present in any way that could damage their play in that state. But on the other hand, it has to be said, there's a huge amount of destruction in these counties, which are, as your friend said, very Republican counties. And, you know, if your home's been destroyed, if there's no power, if everything's a mess, I suspect you're going to see lower voter turnout in those places. And, you know, it's even going to seem a little crass to do electioneering when there's so much crisis around, but you're going to have to overcome that and say, okay,

You know, guys, if you want your place to not be forgotten, you do have to make sure that you don't forget to vote. Well, yeah. And so we need to send aid to North Carolina and Georgia right now. I'm searching for the best website to do that. So I'm going to ask you guys in the audience, is there if there's a local nonprofit where it doesn't go to some grift or some scam, email some recommendations, freedom at Charlie Kirk dot com. We want to make sure we promote that here on air. Secondly, though, Blake, there is a and we'll get into this.

There's a chaotic early voting thing here. They estimate over 35,000 early ballots disappeared.

And so because of the flood, I mean, everything goes away. So ballots have to be reissued, you know, early voting locations. Now there is a precedent for this. Remember hurricane Sandy between the 2012 election, but that's before early voting was really big thing. So we got to kind of figure this out because, um, thankfully it's early enough so that we can make this, um, changes here, but this is, this is catastrophic. Over a hundred people dead, um,

And I don't want to say it took us by surprise, but it certainly didn't have the buildup of a usual hurricane, right? It always depends. Sometimes you get these big sweeps through the Caribbean. And then, yeah, as it was, it was the biggest impact was pretty deep in the interior, which is not super common.

Today I want to talk to you about a very important issue. If you've recently engaged in any sort of restricted diet or have taken medications to lose weight for the summer, be careful.

It seems as if there is a consensus that Samaritan's Purse is the best way to help. And they are located in North Carolina, Billy Graham Ministries is. So SamaritansPurse.org if you guys want to help out your fellow countrymen. We are here in Montana, Blake. Why are we in Montana? We are in Montana to win the U.S. Senate, Charlie.

We'll walk through the map. What does that mean? Why would Montana... That's not a swing state. It's not a swing state. It shouldn't be a swing state on this either. I know. You're supposed to only be in Arizona, Georgia, North Carolina. Why are we in Missoula, Montana? We are in Missoula, Montana. Let me bring up the map just to make sure I have it fully correct. So as everyone knows right now, we've got 100 U.S. Senate seats. Right now, I believe it is...

Yeah, it is. Is it 51-49? It's 51-49 right now. So it's 51-49. It shouldn't be. It shouldn't be. It shouldn't be. But we're accepting that. So it is 51-49 Democrat majority.

And obviously, the Senate is what you need in order to confirm appointments, confirm Supreme Court justices, other judges. It makes it a lot easier to do everything that a president wants to do. So if Trump wins, it's going to be very important that he have at least 50 seats because the vice president is the tiebreaker. And if...

God forbid, we're going to win. We want 51 so that we have a full majority. We don't want that because they would have been, she would have walls as the tiebreaker. So if you look at the map,

In West Virginia, Joe Manchin, the most conservative Democrat, is retiring. Jim Justice is running against, I can't remember the name of the Democrat. Some dog catcher. Some dog catcher who is, by general consensus, not likely to win. And Jim Justice is a very popular governor. We're going to get that free pickup. That'll take it to 50-50. Let's assume we don't drop.

Texas, we don't drop. He'll be fine. Some of the other competitive ones out there. Florida, he'll be fine. Yep, Florida, Texas, we'll be fine. And so if we're able to flip Montana, then we're able to take it to 51-49 GOP majority. Can I pause? Some people don't. Our side tends to not care as much about like Senate control as much as the presidency. Would you agree with that? Yeah, it's... It's harder to explain. This is massive, everybody.

This is an insurance policy to make sure that even if Kamala wins, she can't get through Green New Deal. She can't codify Roe. She can't get through, you know, D.C. and Puerto Rico estates or abolish the Electoral College. Exactly. Exactly. And, you know, they'd still end up probably confirming a lot of her personnel because generally they're not willing to just abandon an administration. But yes, you can't. It would mean she's legislatively a lame duck. And that would be hugely valuable given all the things Democrats want to do.

And this is by far our best chance for a pickup. Obviously, we're still trying hard in Arizona. We're trying in Nevada. We're trying in Ohio, especially. We're hoping we can take down Sherrod Brown. That's another state that will vote Trump by a good margin. But generally, this one here in Montana is the most gettable. We're going to win Montana by a lot. We have a formidable candidate. Jon Tester is not like the greatest senator to ever live by any means.

And so this is a pickup we should get. Yes. And so Tim Sheehy is a great candidate. We are doing two things today. We're doing our show here at Three Things. Our show, we're doing a huge campus Prove Me Wrong event. And then an event with Tim Sheehy here in Missoula where we anticipate over a thousand people. If you guys are in Montana, please attend. It is our Save Big Sky event with Tim Sheehy. Let's put 24 up on screen. As Blake was saying here, this is the map.

So anything that is in baby blue is a current Democrat incumbent running. So right there, Montana. Now, Jon Tester is one of the most liberal members of the U.S. Senate when it comes to votes that matter, meaning he'll do show votes.

But when it really matters, he'll almost always go with the party line. And understand, do you have a thought on that? My favorite thing of his like fake show moderate vote is he didn't cast a ballot for Kamala to be the Democrat nominee. He did. He just didn't return his ballot so that he's technically not on the record voting for Kamala to be the Democrat nominee. It's a lot of show voting. And so he's been in the Senate for well over 14 years. Now, let me think about this. Twelve years.

I think he got elected in 2006. Yeah, yeah. So he won in 06, which was a good year for Democrats. He won in 12, which was a survivable year for Democrats because Romney didn't bring out a lot of turnout. He won in 2018, which was an okay year for Democrats. And now this is the first year...

He has to go up against a Trump movement in a presidential year in a very heavy Trump state. And so he is a he is prime for taking out. Governor Gianforte is very popular. He'll hear he'll probably win by 20 points. Trump will probably win by 25 plus points. So the key to win Montana is to pair up the Trump Gianforte voters with the she he voters in order for Tester to win. You know, he has to win one out of three Trump voters.

That's a lot. It's incredibly high. I'm checking the numbers. In 2018, a much tougher year than this one should be, he won 50 to 47, basically. Yeah, with Matt Rosendale. And so, again, so Jon Tester has to win one out of three Trump voters.

It is our job to educate the people of Montana. Do not vote for Jon Tester. Vote for Tim Sheehy. We must control the Senate. And if Trump wins, we want to make sure that he has a Senate he can work with, that he can get his legislative aims and objectives done. So we are here in Montana trying to make that happen. Thank you for supporting us to make that happen. tpaction.com slash big sky.

We are getting lots of emails right now about the flood and the flooding in western North Carolina. So Meriden's Purse seems to be the frontrunner of what people say really on the ground does well there. Please help your fellow man and woman in western North Carolina and Georgia and parts of Virginia.

Virginia. That part of the world, Blake, is going to be determinative. And I want to talk about the political side of this now, less about the flooding. But the map is ever changing. And that's one of the reasons why we're in Montana is that we want to try to ensure an insurance policy here. Blake, there was some really goofing polling that is now coming to the surface where it

really is emphasizing and focusing North Carolina. I've heard this from public people, private individuals, sourcing off the record, on the record. Kamala Harris believes that one of her best chances for winning the White House is North Carolina. For sure, for sure. And I just brought up, you know, Nate Silver's average. I know not everyone cares for him, but he's good at tracking what's going on. He's an aggregator. Yeah. A good one. He's an aggregator. He's a model maker. He has a good track record.

And, you know, right now, if you look at the maps at the averages of all the polls, you know, in Florida, we're on average up three and a half points. That's great. We should win that. In Arizona, where, you know, you and I are doing the most. We are laboring. We are laboring. And our average there is up one about one and a half points. So it's actually the most in our favor of all of the kind of core swing states. We have to chase Georgia. We're up a point. That's good.

North Carolina, 0.2 points. That is a tie. That is closer than Arizona, closer than Georgia. I'm going to interrupt you for a second here. So there was a new poll today that was good for Trump, but it's also very concerning. Let me tell you why. So it's an Eastern Carolina University poll. So I like local polling, meaning if it's from a local university or a local newspaper, I tend to take it a little more seriously because they tend to know the state and the formula. The state, first of all, the East Carolina poll came out, had Mark Robinson down 17 points.

Yeah. And Donald Trump up, too, which means that Donald Trump is running 19 points ahead of the governor's candidate. 19 points. Of course, you say you need to stay, but that's East Carolina. How are we doing in East Carolina, Charlie? Well, we're actually visiting East Carolina. Yeah, no, I mean, Eastern Carolina is super, super...

Now, mind you, this is before the storm. Maybe this could consolidate more support. I think the optics today is that Trump cares more and he'll be on the ground later today in Valdosta, Georgia. But the map composition is also interesting. And I want to dive into this, Blake, because of some of the new youth vote numbers that were notable. I sent this in the chat here. So everybody back. Right. Do you know that Gen Z, so 18 to 24 year olds right now,

are more conservative than 25 to 29 year olds this is remarkable so if you find a 27 year old they are more likely to be liberal there are more conservatives than there are liberals between 18 to 24 yeah what is the reason for this play you know what's crazy especially i want to emphasize this usually when you'd see this they would downplay it and say well the number of independents just keeps going up so a lot of just the people who would be liberal say they're independent but with these numbers

both groups are 48 independent and then but so all the movement has been from liberals to conservatives what's driving it i think a 10 point movement if you look at this yeah exactly so you know conservatives up five liberals lost five just straight flipped and i think what drives it the most is that i think it's all men basically if you're a young guy in high school in college age

has become such an uncool ideology. It's become a very oppressive ideology. It's very suffocating. So when you and I were growing up, there was still that sort of, you know, I am a radical dissident edge to liberalism. It was already dominant in universities. Totally right. But it had more countercultural credibility. They had a little more credibility on free speech. That was still when you had, you know, that sort of school marmish aspect on the right where, you know, they wanted to censor television and all of that.

We lost that culture war, and so now all of the people who are pro-censorship, who are telling you what you're allowed to think, what you're allowed to do, what you're allowed to say, all of these people are on the left. The kind of schoolmarm personality, the Dolores Umbridge personality, which if you haven't read Harry Potter, you won't get that, but other young people will. And

All these people are on the left and it's just so it's really uncool. It's really unpleasant. And also these people just they lie to you a lot. And so, you know, if you have the Internet connection, you're able to go on social media, go on Wikipedia, go on, you know, go look at videos for yourself. It's so trivial to discover things that you're supposedly not allowed to think about.

And all of the people having interesting thoughts these days are on the right. That's right. And so if you're a young person and that appeals to you, you're going to be pulled towards the right.

And it's not everyone, but it's definitely a shift. We're getting a type of person we have not gotten in a long time on the right. And that's a very promising development. And I mean, just the type of individual, and we'll put this up on screen. We can play one of these tapes here. But look, the videos are amazing. The type of person on campus, Blake, when I first started this advocacy 10 years ago, if I walked into a frat house, it would have been very socially liberal.

Right. And it would have been like the Republicans are stodgy and not fun. And the Democrats are about free speech and like, you know, live free. Now it's the opposite. Yeah. The stereotype for a campus Republican would be sort of like this William F. Buckley wannabe. And, you know, they'd wear they'd be wearing their like tweed jacket that didn't really fit in. Let's just have a meeting and we shall talk about Burke.

Yeah, exactly. Which I'm happy to do. Which is great. I'm okay with all of that. But it was very dominant with that thing. And it was also sort of a defeatist ideology. Campus conservatism, sort of the National Review ideology was always very...

It was like, yeah, we're doomed. We're going to lose. We're going to get run over. We're going to win the debate. We're going to be right is what's going to matter. And so you have much more of an attitude of, wait, we can go, we can win an election. We can try to turn the tide and yeah, maybe we'll lose, but we'll go down and we'll go down guns blazing, but we actually can view this as a fight. We're able to win. And that's very important because as we've seen, you know, with our recent adventures in Nebraska, getting people to want to win is a big deal. Yeah. And without a doubt,

And understand that it's not just the men. Young ladies are starting to come more in our direction. But I mean, we're about to go, University of Montana, just feet away from here. And we are going to be met with a huge crowd. They're anticipating over 1,400 people. By the way, just understand, that's 10% of the student body.

1,400 people show up today. 10% of the whole student body because there's 10,000 people that go to University of Montana. And there's something notable where it is... It's not just cool, but it's fashionable. It is the movement. There's... Dare I say there's a vibe to it that it's also...

Their professors are overly policing the pronouns that they're using. The entire culture is, I love that word suffocating. It is, it is oppressive. It's like a boa constrictor. It is constantly trying to suck the life out of you. That is American leftism right now. I think if you're a young person in college, that means you were in high school when COVID-19 happened. You lost.

You know, maybe two years of your life, you had to sit on these fake virtual classrooms while teachers, you know, read you lectures about George Floyd or systemic racism. You might have had that garish pride flag in your classroom, in a public school classroom. You just have this, you know, propaganda in favor of some of this stuff. And, you know, I don't want to overplay it. I would say if you look at young people, a lot of them are still young.

fairly socially liberal, certainly more than you or I. Correct. But one, not everyone is like that. You have some people who are really swinging our way. Let me say though, that they believe in traditional gender norms though. Yes. That's not socially liberal. That's meaning they don't think the trans thing is increasingly unpopular. They're definitely okay with homosexual marriage.

which I'm not and fine. And they're definitely okay with abortion, but the trans thing seems to be a little bit of a line. Yes. It was too much of an assault on, you know, the basic understanding of reality. Like yes. Abortion. Unfortunately, a lot of people just say you can meet these people. They're like, yeah, it's a, it's a baby. It's a human. And it's okay to kill them because I want to have sex whenever I want. Very ghastly. Yes. But to say like, yeah, this guy is, is totally a woman now is just,

it requires you to believe too many things are obvious. It's also inherently tyrannical because it's not just that you believe it. It's that if you don't believe the man is a woman, then you're going to be penalized and punished and you're going to have your livelihood taken away from you. You could lose your job, be sued because you won't say that that man is a woman and you have to really believe it.

So this ties into a amazing victory that I want to get into in Austria, which was happened this last weekend. Populists, by the way, this is a good, you want to talk about two signs of why Trump might win. I'm not guaranteeing if there, but there's two things. If you say, Charlie, what is working in Trump's favor? Western governments right now are seeing populist,

from Austria to the Netherlands to parts of Germany to parts of France to parts of Argentina that are around the Trump message. Very, very positive for Trump. And number two, voter registration numbers. The country is becoming profoundly more right-wing. Young people, though,

are the reason why this Austrian party was ascended. What are the details here, Blake? This is really something. It's the Austria Populist Freedom Party. The Freedom Party of Austria, I think, is that. Yeah, it achieved its largest election success in its party's history on Sunday as young voters flocked to support the anti-mass immigration and its remigration policies. The FPOE won 29.2% of the national vote. So younger voters in Austria voted

are the ones that are pushing the country more right. Yeah. And this guy's great. He's a, first of all, he kind of very much captures some of the vibe we're seeing. Like I think he's a, he's a college dropout. College is a scam. Hey, love that. And he, he said all this stuff where he's like, yeah, I think they'll say like he's, his views are considered far right. He believes that migrants who commit crimes should be returned to their countries in

His name is Herbert Kierkegaard. Herbert Kierkegaard. I love that. So, so, so, so Herbert Kierkegaard, he calls himself the, I love this, the Volkskanzler, which means what, the people's voice? The people's chancellor. I'm not, I was pretty close. Yeah, they'll harp on that because there was, you know, another person who was a chancellor, but they're all full of crap.

Canada, the most conservative generation in Canada is the under 30s. Is that right? Yeah. In terms of supporting the conservatives. So if you guys want some hope and some optimism, look at what's happening in the Western sphere in countries that you wouldn't expect. Parties and movements that are embracing the Trump style message are overperforming polls and are succeeding. This is a big deal, everybody. And it could it could mean major success coming into November.

Hey, everybody. Charlie Kirk here. What an unbelievable start to 2024. We had last month saving babies with pre-born by providing ultrasounds. And we're doing again this year what we did last year. We're going to stand for life because remaining silent in the face of the most radically pro-death administration is not an option.

As Sir Edmund Burke said, the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing, and we're not going to do nothing.

So voter registration numbers are like mini polls, and they're very accurate. You can see which way the electorate is tilting. Blake, what do those numbers tell us? Well, so for example, just last Friday, I was, I can't say who, but I was speaking with someone in the polling universe.

in Arizona. And, you know, we were just talking, how's the election going to go? And one of the things he told me is, you know, the polls are all, it's very close. I can't easily say which way it will go. But one of the things is, is if you look at the, like, if you look at the registration numbers, it suggests we should be in a great position.

And we were in Arizona. He pointed towards Arizona. He was saying there are districts where we were one point ahead, one and a half points ahead in 22. We're now three points, three and a half points ahead. In voter registration. In voter registration share. In Maricopa County, we've added, we've grown by more than 20,000 additional voters there just since July. Overall in Maricopa, we have a lead of 157,000 registered voters. That's more than what we had statewide in Maricopa.

in 2020. In Arizona, we had 100,000 net Republican voter advantage. In Maricopa alone, now we have 150,000. Exactly. And statewide, it's several hundred thousand. Correct. So, you know, 165 right now. That means if you get, let's say we each get 95% of our party, and then if you're able to split independents, you win easily. And especially if you drive turnout. Yeah. That's the thing. And the thing is, this is why chasing is so important, everybody. If

If you have more registered Rs than Ds, then it's a matter of turnout. So you just have to... It's much easier to chase because there's more ballots that favor you than ballots that favor the bad guys. Exactly. So, and...

You know, if you get your ballot in, they won't harass you to vote anymore. Exactly. Yeah, we'll stop knocking on your door at Turning Point Action. Mind you, that voter registration in Pennsylvania, for the first time ever, all 67 counties are trending Republican more so than Democrat for the first time ever. We are out registering them in North Carolina. We're out registering them in Georgia. We're out registering them in Ohio.

registering them in what Wisconsin we can't do a party registration, not registering them in Iowa. So, I mean, these trends are significant and they are profound. And Scott Pressler's on the ground flipping counties. But the ground game matters a lot. But you can't force people to register in a way that's

You don't want them to. The Democrat voter registration advantage is shrinking. Remember during the summer of 2020, they had Floyd. We had Floyd, a Palooza. We had the entire country that was being incinerated. We had race riots. We had COVID. The country became went super far to the left as far as voter registration numbers went. And Trump still only fell 41,000 ballots. In 2020,

In Pennsylvania, Democrats were 46.5% of registered voters. Republicans were 39%. So 7.5 point lead. Now, going into the homestretch of 24, it's 44 to 40. So we basically shaved 3% off that...

margin when they only won the state by 80,000. Yeah. 80,000 votes, about 1%. And there's a lot of cross Democrats that vote. Yeah. There's Democrats who cross over. And some of the shift is of course that long-term trend. There's, you know, those old FDR Democrats who were pivoting towards Republicans, but

That process has been going on for decades, and it's basically done at this point. What you're seeing a lot of now is you're seeing Hispanics who were always Democrat who were like, wait, I don't agree with the Democrats on any issues at this point. And re-registering to vote is a very hard process. People don't bother to do it. But what's important is first-time voters are registering Republicans.

Yes, that's that right there shows that the new people in the system. So if we drive turnout and we drive high, high, high intensity, we're going to be in a good spot. I will say, though, that absentee ballot requests are down, which on a surface should favor Democrats. We still got to get our people out to vote.

We have to get our people out to vote. Get your ballot in, get it harvested, get it banked. Don't, you know, if you insist on voting election day and you will, no matter what, do it. Let's just, but what if you lived in Western North Carolina and there was a storm? Yeah. How would you vote? If there is a storm on election, by the way, you know, there's a snowstorm. There was a snowstorm in Nevada on election day back in 2022. And so all of a sudden there's a bunch of flooding in your community. Oh, you should have voted early. Vote early. Get your ballot in banked.

bank your vote, take your name off the list so that we can stop harassing you. Thanks so much for listening, everybody. Email us as always, freedom at charliekirk.com. Thanks so much for listening and God bless. For more on many of these stories and news you can trust, go to charliekirk.com.
