Two political dynasties need to fall. One will likely fall in ours. One, hopefully in November, is up for referendum. We have a live reporter from Cheyenne, Wyoming, Kelly Cheshbaka joins us from Alaska, and also Doug Mastriano from Pennsylvania in an action packed episode.
00:00:55.000His 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.
00:01:04.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:01:28.000There have been a couple families that have ruled American Republican politics over the last couple decades.
00:01:35.000The Bush family, the McCains, the Rockefellers, the Romneys, and the Cheneys.
00:01:42.000They all get along very well, and there's pockets of this country, Teton County, Wyoming, otherwise known as Jackson Hall, Wyoming, Kenny Bunkport, Maine, that just seem to be dominated by that type of Republican, Aspen, Colorado being another place as well.
00:01:59.000Well, the McCain establishment in Arizona suffered a major loss two weeks ago.
00:02:05.000It is hard to see how they'll ever be able to get back to political relevancy in Arizona.
00:02:10.000Top and bottom, all throughout the ballot.
00:02:13.000The Bushes have suffered loss after loss.
00:02:16.000Ken Paxton soundly defeated Bush in the Attorney General primary race.
00:02:23.000And tonight, you very well might see the end of a political dynasty as far as elected office goes until she runs for Congress in Virginia, which is really her home seat, which I think she'll do very soon.
00:02:36.000Liz Cheney running in a primary in Wyoming against Harriet Hageman.
00:02:43.000One of the most important races of 2022 until the midterms is happening tonight.
00:02:50.000If you live in Wyoming, you need to vote, period.
00:02:53.000We need to send a massive message that we no longer have multi-generational, dynastic, corrupt families that invade countries unnecessarily, do crony deals with the military-industrial complex, abuse government power, and protect the Uniparty.
00:03:36.000You know, for a state that doesn't have that many voters compared to a lot of other states across the country, the turnout that I'm seeing, I'm at the second polling location I've been at so far today, turnout is huge.
00:03:47.000And the story of the day is how many Democrats are going to switch and vote in Republican and get a Republican ballot in order to support Liz Cheney.
00:03:56.000So that's what we're seeing everywhere we go.
00:03:59.000I've been interviewing folks as far as the kind of straw poll, as the voting as they're coming out.
00:04:07.000I'd still say it's about three to one that folks that are willing to go on and talk about it that are voting for Hare Hageman.
00:04:13.000But there are an awful lot of Democrats.
00:04:15.000I've speaking to some of the poll workers that are here saying that's the story.
00:04:18.000There are a lot of Democrats coming in to vote, and you can just see the amount of people behind us to actually let us into the polling place.
00:04:23.000I'm going to actually walk and talk and we're going to go out and I'll show you the line as we go outside of the building here.
00:04:30.000But that's the story: is how many, how many MAGA Republicans are going to show up and vote, and how many of the Democrats are going to switch their party affiliation.
00:04:40.000Yeah, Wyoming is a very interesting state.
00:05:21.000The turnout, and even compared to what we saw in Arizona, you rarely see lines out the door in a primary, much less a midterm primary.
00:05:29.000So, there is high energy and speaking to folks.
00:05:32.000I was asking them why, and we're kind of getting conflicting information about that, whether it's Democrats that are coming out and switching their party affiliation to vote for Cheney, or if it's Republicans that are so fed up with Cheney.
00:05:43.000And we've got a lot of Republicans saying that they were fed up with what's happening to President Trump, with the raid in Mar-a-Lago.
00:05:49.000And so, there's you're getting kind of both of that, both dynamics here in a state that a lot oftentimes was considered flyover has significant implications for the rest of the country.
00:05:58.000As you've mentioned, with what's going on with the January 6th subcommittee and all of the other nonsense that's coming out of Washington and the implications for MAGA movement as a whole, if Cheney loses, this is a huge victory, not just for Hegeman, but for President Trump.
00:06:14.000Yeah, so just what that's really interesting.
00:06:17.000Again, the Cheneys have kind of ruled Wyoming for quite a while.
00:06:20.000This would be a major repudiation of a dynasty that was largely unquestioned for years.
00:06:27.000This would be an example of the people taking back power from something that could only be described as an oligarchy.
00:06:36.000Are you getting that kind of vibe or that kind of language on the ground?
00:06:39.000The folks that we're talking to that are Republicans, basically, the sense is that Cheney does not represent Wyoming anymore.
00:06:49.000And as you mentioned, she may end up running in Virginia at some point.
00:06:52.000And that's the sense here: that from the Republican voters that I've interviewed, they feel like Cheney isn't even from Wyoming, doesn't represent Wyoming at all.
00:07:01.000So, absolutely, this would be a repudiation.
00:07:04.000They basically see her as somebody that comes out to vacation and take advantage of them, but doesn't do anything to actually help the state of Wyoming.
00:07:11.000Ben, I just have to remark, that's an unbelievable line.
00:07:14.000I mean, this, again, for those of you on radio, this is an August primary and a crazy line.
00:08:10.000The numbers we're seeing, again, and the folks that we're interviewing as they come out, when they come out as Republicans, it's still about three to one Hegeman over Cheney.
00:08:18.000And again, that wild part is not that Democrat.
00:08:21.000Again, you're in a kind of a suburb of Denver almost, is Cheyenne, right?
00:08:25.000I mean, it's not the most conservative part of the state.
00:08:31.000But as you start to get out to Cody and you get out to Gillette and you get out to kind of the rural areas, it's going to be 80%, 90% in favor of Hageman.
00:09:08.000Even if she loses this election, which she's expected to do, she's not just going to fade away.
00:09:13.000There's going to be plenty of opportunities for Liz Cheney.
00:09:15.000But I'll bet at the end of the day, she wouldn't trade what she has done for all the elections in the world because it's her conscience that's driving her.
00:09:24.000And look, in politics, then you're out of it.
00:09:29.000You ask them what they did, they don't have a very good answer.
00:09:32.000We'll always remember what she's done, and she's inspired a lot of people.
00:09:36.000You know, you know what I find so funny, and we're actually going to get to that in just a second here.
00:09:40.000I think we have time in the next segment before Doug Mastriano.
00:09:43.000We have Doug Mastriano, by the way, joining us later this hour.
00:09:46.000Is they always attack us as being anti-democracy and kind of anti-Democrat process.
00:09:53.000And I always love when they say, well, even if, you know, even if the voters reject her, you know, the other side, they're really against democracy.
00:10:00.000I was quoted in the New York Times, and the head of the line of the article, the New York Times, had anti-democracy folk forces taking over Arizona.
00:10:10.000And you read my quote, my quote in the article, because some reporter, some snake, came into one of our events, even though he wasn't invited.
00:10:38.000Arizona Republicans are making a case against the idea of democracy itself.
00:10:43.000Now, do you notice they never actually define the term democracy ever?
00:10:50.000Now, they get really worried when all of a sudden people like myself, because I'm quoted in this article, we come out and say that America is not a democracy, we are a republic, they start to lose their mind.
00:11:01.000They say, how dare you say something like that?
00:11:08.000A republic, by definition, is opposed to rule by a single person.
00:11:14.000Republics are slow and they're intentional.
00:11:18.000And you do vote in a republic, obviously.
00:11:22.000You do so through representative democracy.
00:11:24.000So that might be where they're getting some of the term democracy, but we are not a pure democracy.
00:11:31.000In a republic, for example, you have some stated truths that have been agreed upon by the vast majority of the population and the sovereign, the states, and the people.
00:11:57.000Your rights are not up for a up or down vote just based on 51%.
00:12:03.000Now, if you want to add to amendments or you want to clarify them, it's a long-drawn out, multi-dimensional process of state certification and Congress, multiple branches of government.
00:12:14.000In a democracy, it's let's get everyone in the room, let's vote for it, and then we go forward.
00:12:21.000Arizona Republicans are making a case against the idea of democracy itself by Zasheen Alim.
00:12:27.000Yeah, I got to listen to Zasheen Alim about what American democracy is.
00:12:31.000Like, how about you sit this one out, pal?
00:12:34.000I mean, this is one of the most incoherent articles I've ever read, MSNBC.
00:12:49.000So then he says, in other words, in heart of one of the most energetic hotbeds of Trumpist Republican activity, the claim that U.S. is a republic instead of democracy is becoming a common mantra.
00:13:01.000But the narrative involves a rhetorical sleight of hand to cloak an extremist agenda of minority rule in the guise of fulfilling what the founders wanted.
00:13:10.000Okay, so there is something true about this.
00:13:12.000Republic-style governments or small R Republican-style governments do protect the rights of the minority.
00:13:20.000Why is that all of a sudden a bad thing, according to MSNBC?
00:13:23.000I thought it's all about protecting minority rights.
00:13:25.000Okay, so now we want to continue to protect the rights of a minority, and we're the ones that are anti-democracy.
00:13:31.000As scholar George Thomas of Claremont McKenna College has pointed out, the founding generation did describe the American experiment as a republic, a form of government in which it was ruled by representatives of a citizen body, but didn't see it at odds with or mutually exclusive from democracy.
00:13:48.000The founders were opposed to direct democracy, obviously.
00:13:51.000And then this woman, this New York Times columnist or man, I don't know, Jamal Bowie, said there's really no difference in present between a republic and a democracy.
00:14:08.000That is a fundamental difference between a republic and a democracy.
00:14:13.000The agenda of the Arizona Republicans, MSNBC says, is to create a mutually exclusive dichotomy between democracy and republic, and that use of that dichotomy is to serve the rights' political goals.
00:15:13.000Uncle Tom 2 offers a compelling and brave analysis of the true story of black America.
00:15:19.000Uncle Tom 2 is the eye-opening documentary everyone in America should see.
00:15:23.000The cultural shift from prosperity, integrity, and faith to the current perceived state of anger, discontent, and victimhood.
00:15:29.000Uncle Tom 2 offers historical footage, photos, correspondence, and data to reveal the genuine strides of black America in the 20th century, the deliberate Marxist strategy to create racial tension and replace God with government, the NAACP sinister agenda, the fall of black Harlem, the truth behind Black Lives Matter, and the demoralization of America for political power.
00:15:49.000Don't miss Uncle Tom 2 from executive producer Larry Elder and director Justin Malone.
00:15:53.000With Brandon Tatum, Vodie Bockham, and Chad O. Jackson.
00:17:07.000I heard Carrie Lake said 10 to 1 in her race, 16 to 1.
00:17:11.000A good chunk of that by other Republicans, about 6 million or so, were in attack pieces against me.
00:17:16.000So I had a bloody primary, but still came out with almost half the vote.
00:17:20.000The next guy behind me was 22 points behind.
00:17:23.000So, you know, as you rightly said with your interview in Arizona down there, in the old days, money seemed to have the greatest influence on races.
00:17:51.000He's the current attorney general of Pennsylvania.
00:17:55.000If I'm not mistaken, he also was very involved in the 2020 election in changing rules or measures or something, if my memory serves me correctly.
00:18:36.000In fact, on his watch, murders have doubled in the state, especially Philadelphia, which is a terrible, it should be a great place to go, but it's just ridden with crime.
00:20:01.000We're making serious gains in the Latino population right now because the Democrat Party is going to sound so radical.
00:20:10.000The Rust Belt, working class trade union types, they're completely on our side here.
00:20:15.000Maybe not their union bosses, but the rank and file, they believe the same things we do.
00:20:20.000You know, the appeal is getting us back to basics here.
00:20:23.000We had one of the heaviest-handed rulers in the form of Governor Wolf, and never Charlie was a governor more appropriately named, Tom Wolf, during COVID.
00:20:33.000He was under him, you know, the famous Dr. Levine sent the sick back into homes, the first state to do that, killing thousands and no accountability.
00:20:41.000Levine gets promoted, you know, all this ridiculous nonsense.
00:20:45.000And so, on day one, we're going to roll back all these restrictions on our energy sector because I'll inherit, of course, a very sluggish economy in a recession six months into it, I'm sure.
00:20:56.000And so, my goal is to make us the Florida of the North.
00:20:59.000And how we do that, we have the potential because God has blessed us with centuries of natural resources on our feet for energy.
00:21:06.000And so, on the first day, I'm going to get us out of this scheme that Tom Wolf put us into called the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, Reggie, which is a carbon emissions tax, which has jacked up our costs across the state by 40% already, and really not fully in it yet.
00:21:19.000And so, on day one, we're going to be out by executive order.
00:21:30.000And if you defy my orders, you'll find your school being losing funding and unable to sustain itself.
00:21:37.000On day one, we're going to bring common sense back.
00:21:40.000No more mandates, no more jab for jobs.
00:21:42.000Anybody who lost a job under my authority as a governor, such as in the National Guard, Air Guard, or in the various directorates or state police who lost their job because they wanted to have a choice over what went in their body regarding the jab, the COVID vaccine, they'll be welcome back.
00:21:58.000On day one, no more guys on the girls' teams.
00:22:44.000And what has happened is the Democrats are their own worst enemy.
00:22:47.000You know, back when I was first stationed with the 2nd Cavalry during the Cold War in the 80s in Nuremberg, Germany, we had a mirror before you'd go to the parade field for inspection and somebody put a stick around and know your enemy.
00:22:57.000You know, in that case, the Democrats are their own worst enemy.
00:22:59.000They've gone so extreme on so many policies, you know, deeming parents as domestic terrorists because they have a strong opinion on something, defending, you know, pornography and sex acts being taught in school, defending, this is the Democrats, defending, you know, gender confusion of kids between five and 10 years old.
00:23:17.000So what has happened in counties in the center part of the state and elsewhere that used to be reliably Democrat because of traditional Democrats, like many of my relatives on the Italian side, the party's left them behind.
00:23:30.000And so many have flipped to independent and much more gotten Republican.
00:23:36.000Yeah, it's just been a total and complete transformation.
00:23:39.000So what is your greatest need right now now to the election?
00:23:43.000I mean, we're 45 days out from ballots.
00:23:55.000They do see Pennsylvania as the Keystone State, which we are.
00:23:58.000And I do believe if we get it right on November 8th, which we will, we could turn the tide of the country.
00:24:04.000And that's just not hyperbole, you know, or somebody who really believes in their state.
00:24:07.000I do believe since Pennsylvania is rooted so much in our history.
00:24:10.000You know, the frame of government that we had in 1787 during the Constitution Convention came from William Penn in 1682 when he founded the colony of Pennsylvania.
00:24:19.000And so, of course, we have the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, Gettysburg, a new birth of freedom, even 9-11 Flight 93 out west in Somerset County.
00:24:28.000And so I ask people to please donate and be generous because if we get it right, we could turn the tide in our country.
00:24:35.000Yeah, there's been a lot of questions about the kind of tension between the states and the federal government and kind of balancing that.
00:24:44.000You know, Pennsylvania is kind of just been all along with the Biden regime.
00:24:50.000Biden pretends he's from Pennsylvania.
00:24:53.000And yet, you know, people in Pennsylvania are suffering.
00:24:56.000You know, what issues in particular are you willing to stand up to Joe Biden on as governor of Pennsylvania?
00:25:03.000Any of this of the constitutional rights that are delineated, you know, obviously if he's going to send his guns into our towns here to take away people's Second Amendments, actually, Charlie, much of what I'm saying, I actually have, since I'm the Senator, I actually have legislation here that would prevent the state government and state agencies from cooperating with the federal government.
00:25:22.000You know, it's that shutdown two years ago was very eye-opening.
00:25:26.000It showed us how important a governor is.
00:25:29.000And we had governors like in Pennsylvania and California, New York, wielding their power for evil and for bad and for oppression and stripping of our rights.
00:25:35.000And meanwhile, you know, South Dakota and especially Florida and Texas, you know, they showed us what a governor can do standing in the way of federal overreach.
00:25:43.000And so my goal is basically to restore the freedom.
00:25:46.000So defend your rights, to speak your mind, that you won't be a domestic terrorist nor targeted by law enforcement because you have a strong opinion.
00:25:52.000As we saw in Loudoun County, when a dad of a young lady that was raped, the school board covered it up and he was hauled out and arrested.
00:26:01.000You know, and one other thing here, you know, in this culture that Wolf and Shapiro have created in Pennsylvania, they've demonized our law enforcement officials.
00:26:17.000My first 100 days is to strip Pennsylvania of state regulations.
00:26:22.000We're one of the heaviest regulated states in the nation.
00:26:24.000We have 153,000 regulations that cost us everything.
00:26:28.000My goal is the first 100 days to get underneath 100,000.
00:26:31.000And then I'll be signing that piece of legislation into law inspired by Donald Trump, but it does exist in our state house and senate that every new regulation too have to go away.
00:26:39.000So in every regard, I'll be pushing back the bureaucracy and putting the power back in people's hands.
00:26:45.000How are you going to, I mean, again, it's difficult where you are right now, push back against the ballot laundering and all this nonsense in downtown Philly.
00:26:54.000I worry the people are with you, but there's just, it's just so screwy in downtown Philadelphia really quick.
00:27:01.000Yeah, the bottom line is accountability and transparency.
00:27:04.000You know, Wolf vetoed legislation I had to shore that up, just like hours away from becoming a law.
00:27:09.000And so we need 20,000 sets of eyes, two people in every polling station in the state there for accountability.
00:27:15.000And that's how we get control of this ridiculous system that we're in.
00:27:44.000And obviously, we don't want this to be how it's gone for Republicans where you're debating both the moderator who tends to be a liberal sympathetic to the Democrat candidate and a candidate.
00:27:53.000And so we're offering Josh Shapiro this great opportunity here that he picks a location and hosts the debate.
00:28:02.000So you'll have two moderators, and then I'll pick one.
00:28:04.00090-minute debates, two of them in October.
00:28:07.000We'll see if he's willing to have the courage to actually have a fair debate because obviously there's a lot of folks in the media that are like pom-pom girls for him.
00:28:13.000I mean, the pieces they write about him, glowing reviews, and Masteriano, you know, this terrible person.
00:28:19.000And so he's not going to agree to it, though.
00:28:34.000Doug, I'm going to play a piece of tape here of another Pennsylvanian, Scott Perry, who had his cell phone taken by the FBI.
00:28:41.000I want your reaction to this play cut six.
00:28:43.000But, Maria, what they think this is about is intimidating anyone who refuses to bend the knee to the narrative, whether it's Scott Perry, whether it's President Trump, and with passing a bill that will pay for hiring of 87,000 IRS agents, tyranny is going to come right into everyone's living room very, very shortly.
00:29:23.000You know, supplied that, you know, I have Charlie.
00:29:26.000I was a committee chair, and I can't imagine that I would get away with being able to kick off the Democrat members of the committee that I didn't like and bringing on compliant ones as the committee has done with the January 6th in the House.
00:29:38.000But nobody in the media gives a crap because it advances their agenda and their talking points.
00:29:42.000And so, you know, despite my misgivings, I provided the documents they asked for.
00:29:47.000And then, of course, they had me to set up for an interview, a compelled interview, by the way, which I'm not sure that's even legal with legislative privilege.
00:29:57.000And all I asked, Charlie, since they're using it, releasing tidbits to make people look disloyal and make people look like clowns and to influence the midterms.
00:30:07.000And should they release anything out of context, we would have a recording of what was actually said in context.
00:30:13.000And these people on the committee are so insistent that I could not do that.
00:30:17.000And now I have to bring him to court and sue them.
00:30:19.000So we're going to bring him to court and we're going to win because even CNN said that was a reasonable request by Masteriano.
00:30:26.000So one of the reasons why I think you're going to win, Doug, and one of the reasons why I think that Josh Shapiro is in trouble is in the break, I went to Josh Shapiro's website and he's really disguising himself as a moderate.
00:30:40.000Now, that might seem as if, oh, he's a, of course, he's a deceitful snake, all that stuff.
00:30:45.000But I think he knows the electorate in Pennsylvania has changed, that he has to try to win over traditional Republicans.
00:30:52.000You know, they say his vision for Pennsylvania, this is what Shapiro says, rising costs, a changing economy, unprecedented attacks on our democracy.
00:31:31.000Many people have registered independent, and that's really where this race is going to be won, Charlie, is with the independents.
00:31:37.000And one of the last polls that we did had independents breaking for me 60%.
00:31:41.000And that's after coming out of a brutal primary where I was assailed by the more liberal moderates of my own party with many millions of dollars spent hitting me.
00:34:16.000And I've been so disappointed and let down in how Alaska has been represented by Lisa Murkowski.
00:34:27.000So we have the ability to defeat the Cheney dynasty today.
00:34:32.000And today, the Murkowski dynasty will not be defeated, but will have a better idea of exactly who will the final runnings be in the attempt to try and defeat Lisa Murkowski.
00:34:46.000It's a very complicated situation happening right now in Alaska.
00:34:50.000And the candidate that we are behind, one of my favorite candidates in the country, who hopefully will be the next senator for the great state of Alaska, Kelly Shabaka.
00:35:31.000Well, I think the most interesting thing to know is Project Veritas has exposed that Murkowski colluded with her campaign staff to deceive Alaskans in order to manipulate this re-engineered election system so she would have some kind of a fighting chance to keep her Senate seat.
00:35:47.000This is the first time we're going through this election process.
00:35:50.000If we had a straight-up fair election, she would be retiring today.
00:35:54.000She'd have no chance of getting through a party primary.
00:35:56.000But with this new election system, this is how it works.
00:35:59.000Today, all candidates, regardless of party, are going forward through the quote primary process.
00:36:07.000There's about 20 candidates for the U.S. Senate position, all parties, and the four candidates who get the most votes will move through this process to the general election.
00:36:16.000I expect it will be me, Murkowski, the strongly funded Democrat position, and then a fourth candidate.
00:36:52.000Historically, 54% of Alaskans vote for the Republican candidate.
00:36:57.000And I am the only candidate on the ballot that's raised more than $50,000 to the right of Murkowski.
00:37:03.000And we are in the millions of dollars raised.
00:37:05.000And so it's looking good that we're going to win this race, especially with the endorsement of their Alaska Republican Party and President Trump.
00:37:12.000And then if someone doesn't get 50% on round one, the fourth candidate drops off the ballot.
00:37:18.000The people who are ranked two, three, and four under the fourth candidate, their votes get reallocated to the top three.
00:37:24.000Then the third candidate drops off the ballot.
00:37:27.000Their votes for second, third, and fourth place get reallocated to the top two candidates.
00:37:32.000And it essentially becomes a runoff between those top two.
00:37:35.000And I expect, though I don't know, it'll be a runoff between me and Murkowski who gets the most votes.
00:37:40.000Now, fortunately, Lisa Murkowski is only planning on picking up a lot of Democrat votes.
00:37:45.000Most Republicans have completely turned against her.
00:37:48.000She has to claw her way to the top with a smattering of second, third, and fourth place votes when she's done things like lost her NRA endorsement.
00:37:56.000She's voted both for and against abortion.
00:37:59.000So nobody on either side of those issues trusts her.
00:38:02.000And she's voting 70% or more of the time with Joe Biden, who has just pursued an energy-annihilating agenda against Alaska, killing our jobs and crushing our families and driving up inflation, making it really hard to live here.
00:38:14.000That was one of the most confusing things I've ever heard in my entire life.
00:38:17.000And you did a wonderful job walking us through it.
00:38:29.000I could design a flowchart and I try and explain it to people with objects on a table, makes it a little bit easier.
00:38:36.000But it was absolutely designed by the political consultants who work for Lisa Murkowski's campaign.
00:38:46.000And these undercover videos from Project Veritas show Lisa Murkowski completely knew about it and was behind it because this is the only way she can hope to maintain her 41-year Murkowski monarchy.
00:38:57.000The Murkowski's passed down our Senate seat like a birthright.
00:39:01.000She was actually appointed to her Senate seat by her father when he was elected governor.
00:39:05.000She was never originally elected to this seat, and she's never had 50% or more of the vote in Alaska, which means that even when she was popular, most of Alaska has never liked Lisa Murkowski.
00:39:15.000But this year, she's very unpopular, which is why I'm confident we're going to win this election.
00:39:22.000Yeah, so one of the reasons I think they put forward ranked choice voting is that the second place person tends to actually benefit from this.
00:39:30.000And so, this is not what's happening today.
00:39:49.000That is absolutely the smart thing to do, mostly because it keeps it simple.
00:39:53.000We want to make sure that we don't accidentally suppress voter turnout because, just like you said, Charlie, the system's so confusing, and people already have a little bit of a mistrust of elections because of what happened in 2020.
00:40:48.000And it will decide whether or not Lisa Murkowski maintains this seat, which is the decision vote for many of the radical nominees or the legislation that happens that determines the outcome of the nation.
00:41:00.000And so Alaskans have a lot of power this year.
00:41:03.000And we want to make sure that there's not a bunch of people who stay home just because they don't trust ranked choice voting.
00:41:08.000So if you want to keep it simple, vote for Kelly number one in November and just leave the rest of your ballot blank.
00:41:23.000And so just really quick, there is kind of a concern, though, amongst some people that aren't big Murkowski fans, and I know them and they don't like Murkowski, that the Republicans are going to divide themselves and that the Democrat will win because Alaska has some Democrat sympathies.
00:41:47.000That is just not reflected in the data at all.
00:41:49.000I've heard some whispers of concerns about that.
00:41:51.000You got to remember in Alaska, Democrat is essentially a bad word, which is why Lisa Murkowski won't call herself a Democrat, even though she votes like a Democrat, is funded by Democrats and is endorsed by Democrat.
00:42:03.000She can't call herself a Democrat because we are a state that voted for President Trump by double digits twice.
00:42:10.000And nobody has made more President Trump fans than Joe Biden.
00:42:13.000So I'm sure that we're going to have even stronger representation for common sense conservative values this year.
00:42:19.000I don't think that our Democrats are going to pick up a whole lot of votes and enthusiasm this year.
00:42:25.000We can see in the data that most Republicans, like 90% plus, have left Murkowski and are not going back no matter what they do.
00:42:34.000The real question is, how many of the Democrats are really going to line up behind Lisa Murkowski when she's voted both ways on gun control?
00:42:48.000She says one thing to us and does the opposite in Washington, D.C.
00:42:51.000She doesn't vote in Alaska's best interest.
00:42:54.000She's funded by dark money outside the state.
00:42:56.000So we see that a lot of our common sense Democrats are lining up behind our campaign because they know that they're going to actually get results and not rhetoric.
00:43:05.000Even if we don't always agree on everything, at least we know that we'll get things delivered for Alaska.
