As the saying goes, things are looking up as we approach Election Day, and suddenly, that red wave we were thinking about in the spring and then corporate media in the summer told us not to think about it all, not to expect a red wave. And now, here in the fall, with elections less than a week away, the Marxist media and university pollsters that have been all but predicting that the Dems would hold the House and the Senate are suddenly revising their polls and their projections. Lo and behold, they re running from those forecasts to now embrace the prospect, the likely prospect, that now not only will the Republicans win back the House, but also regain the Senate, and not by one seat, but by three or four seats.
00:00:08.100As the saying goes, things are looking up as we approach Election Day, about five days off now.
00:00:13.700And suddenly, that red wave we were thinking about in the spring and then corporate media in the summer told us not to think about it all, not to expect that red wave.
00:00:22.640And now, here in the fall, with elections less than a week away, the corporate media and university pollsters that have been all but predicting that the Marxist Dems would hold the House and the Senate are suddenly revising their polls and their projections.
00:00:40.080Lo and behold, they're running from those forecasts to now embrace the prospect, the likely prospect, that now not only will the Republicans win back the House,
00:00:52.380but also regain the Senate, and not by one seat, not two, but three, perhaps four seats.
00:01:05.340It should be, because the left is basically being forced to acknowledge their wrongheaded prognostication and just a wee bit of partisan prejudice in their spirited numerical support of their Marxist left outlook.
00:01:19.660Well, it was off by a sizable measure of just about something the size of Greenland.
00:01:26.020High crime, high inflation, deadly drugs, sex trafficking, and the Marxist Dem White House lying through their teeth about a secure southern border.
00:01:53.420All Marxist disinformation at its worst emanating from the White House without consequence.
00:01:59.600Republican leadership, by the way, was silent.
00:02:02.520Corporate media was compliant in their acquiescence to the psyops run almost weekly by the Marxist left against the American people.
00:02:11.760Lies are truth, down is up, wrong is right, dark is bright, and for almost 22 months now, the Marxist Dem puppet president and his puppeteers have avoided consequence until this very moment.
00:02:28.080The midterm elections are upon us, and now there are consequences at hand and just in time.
00:02:36.500The latest polling and real clear politics projections shows Republicans taking back the House and the Senate by sizable margins.
00:02:45.320As many as 50 seats in the House, four seats in the Senate, and picking up three governorships.
00:02:51.420These are all, of course, projections.
00:02:53.280But unthinkable until two weeks ago when corporate media and some Dems realized they couldn't succeed in their lies.
00:03:01.900And unless they adjusted to reality, they and their polling would make them look monumentally foolish and crooked.
00:03:09.700Well, nowhere is the battle more intense, more important than in the state of Arizona.
00:03:14.480Where names like Carrie Lake, Mark Bencham, Abe Hamaday, and Blake Masters dominate the airwaves.
00:03:22.320And who may be the beneficiaries of a colossal red wave sweeping the nation on November 8th.
00:03:29.460Our guest today is the woman responsible for the Republican messaging, much of the strategy and tone of the campaign in Arizona.
00:03:37.340Joining us here on the Great America Show, please welcome Kelly Ward, the chair of the Arizona Republican Party.
00:05:11.640And I do know in other states, some of the candidates, even though they're on the same political team,
00:05:17.420they're all Republicans or they're all Democrats, they don't even like each other.
00:05:21.400I think that our team is different because they're willing to take on the political risks of associating with each other because their message is so similar and so focused on what has to happen here in our state and across the country.
00:05:39.280And they've brought in people, not just Carrie, Blake, you know, Mark and Abe, the rest of the slate, the rest of the executive branch slate, the legislative branch.
00:05:51.340You know, our legislature, we got rid of a lot of rhinos, Lou, in the primary.
00:05:57.260And so people can feel confident if they've been worried about the Republican Party going astray, going the Lincoln Project way, going, you know, into this squishy middle where they give up ground every single election, every single policy decision.
00:06:12.180We have corrected that in Arizona so people can be, you know, unafraid to vote straight Republican down the ticket, whether it's the legislature, whether it's the school board.
00:06:23.600We've we've really, really honed our our message and we've gotten people that are you know, they share those values.
00:06:32.640They have a great moral compass. They know where they're coming from.
00:06:36.640They have a firm foundation and they are unafraid to tell the electorate and to tell the world what they believe, why they believe it and how it's going to make things better across the board, no matter what political party you are part of or if you're not part of a political party at all.
00:06:54.960You know, and it's it's a wonderful, a wonderful template for the rest of the country to follow.
00:07:03.080You know, a couple of candidates here and there will sort of shoulder up together on the in their messaging.
00:07:11.760But it is I just can't think of another state.
00:07:14.480And it's by the way, as you well know, the Republican Party has its rhinos, but the Democrat Party doesn't have dinos.
00:07:24.020And I don't understand why people don't ever ask why.
00:07:28.160Why don't the Democrats have those dinos?
00:08:02.600He's trying to go out on the campaign trail, tell people that he's some kind of an independent when he votes with Biden and Chuck Schumer 94 percent of the time.
00:08:12.440If that's independent, then, you know, I've got a I've got some oceanfront property here in Arizona that I could sell to those electorate, electorate, those in the electorate who are willing to buy that.
00:08:22.860And and I'll tell you what, principally in the eastern part of the country, there are a lot of people who buy it.
00:08:31.380I don't know what to say about a party that it's top six leaders.
00:08:38.560The top six leaders, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer.
00:08:47.880I don't you think if you were in that party, you'd be thinking twice about what in the world you're associating with?
00:08:54.840Yes, you are making me a little bit sick there, Lou, just to hear all those names all in a row, because not not one of them has done anything to make things better for regular Americans.
00:09:06.820I mean, they are responsible for these outrageous gas prices.
00:09:11.120And now Biden wants us to say, oh, thank you. You brought it down a couple of pennies here and there when we're paying more than twice as much as we were when Trump was president.
00:09:21.280You know, housing prices, food prices. I was at the grocery store yesterday and there was a little lady and we were both looking at cheese.
00:09:27.720I was looking for Colby Jack cheese. I couldn't find Colby Jack.
00:09:30.520She said, oh, I'm just looking for whatever's the cheapest because that's that's all I can afford.
00:09:34.620And, you know, it is sad what these Democrats have done and what they want to continue to do to to the people of our nation.
00:09:45.140It is. And there's no there's no if about it.
00:09:50.160There's no and about it. These radical Marxist Dems control the Democrat Party.
00:09:57.100They control this puppet president. And there is no question what they mean to do, because they're demonstrating it almost weekly, whether it be a wide open southern border bringing in six million illegal immigrants.
00:10:12.200No one knows where they've been distributed across the country.
00:10:15.600We don't know what they're doing, but we do know one thing who's paying for it.
00:10:19.340And that's the American taxpayer. And we still don't know what the bill is.
00:10:23.980We know also that this this president and that party have no compunction whatsoever about radical gender transition and transformation surgery for for any age of our our children.
00:10:42.440It's an assault on everything precious and and and values that are absolutely critical to the to this nation.
00:10:52.240Well, yeah, they want to destroy faith.
00:10:55.580They want to destroy family and they want to destroy freedom across the board.
00:11:00.040The policies that they are trying to implement, the things that they are trying to normalize, the the messages that they are trying to give to our children and to people across the board are designed to destroy faith, family and freedom.
00:11:14.820The bedrocks of the bedrocks of the bedrocks of the bedrocks of the bedrocks of the bedrocks of this country and really the bedrocks of the Republican Party.
00:11:19.160If they can destroy those things, then they feel that they will have free reign to be able to rule over us.
00:11:27.900I know you've been working on it for years and years, as I've I, to to restore the belief, you know, people's faith and to strengthen families and to make sure that we stand up for freedom.
00:11:40.720That's what America is all about without liberty, without free speech, without the the our God given rights that are codified in our Constitution.
00:11:50.200Our country is just another second class class place in the world to be taken over by the next strongman dictator that comes along.
00:11:59.420And the Democratic Party has obviously decided to become the party of that that vision.
00:12:22.600And I want to turn to one of those left wingers, Liz Cheney, is urging her her back, urging Arizona voters to reject Carrie Lake and Mark Fincham.
00:12:35.200By golly, I wonder who in the world decided that that Liz Cheney would be the ideal spokesman to take on Carrie Lake and Mark Fincham in the Republican Party in Arizona.
00:12:45.460Well, probably Lyon Liz Cheney herself, supported by people from the Lincoln Project and other, you know, outlier groups that don't represent the people of the United States.
00:12:59.180You know, personally, I've been attacked by Liz Cheney.
00:13:02.580You know, she is on the J6 Unselect Committee.
00:13:05.980She is part of the the weaponized government that's persecuting me personally, as well as many, many people across this country who do not deserve it,
00:13:16.360who just want to stand up for our First Amendment and our right to free speech and our ability to to say what we think in our country.
00:13:25.360And and Liz Cheney is a ringleader in in destroying that.
00:13:30.700And it is just hilarious that she has come in and wants to say that she's so powerful.
00:13:37.680When she lost her own election in dramatic fashion, you know, I think she got about 30, 33 percent of the vote in her primary.
00:13:54.380She is not a Republican in good standing.
00:13:56.480And she thinks that she's so powerful that she can come into our great state and talk about our beloved political candidates who are going to win their election.
00:15:42.760And it's a sickness that she really needs to take something for.
00:15:48.860Mark Kelly, hosting a summit with the leader of a group focusing on transitioning children and keeping them away from unsupportive parents.
00:15:57.840Now, that was apparently in 2020, running against Blake Masters.
00:16:44.900I am appalled at my profession, at people who would encourage these confused kids to mutilate themselves, to make it so that they can never, ever, ever have children in the future.
00:17:02.940And the way they manipulate those children themselves and their parents is sickening.
00:17:09.160They tell those families that if they don't allow their son to become their daughter, that they will have a dead son and wouldn't they rather have a live, you know, transgender daughter?
00:17:25.900That is not the case because what we see is after these mutilations occur, there is still huge, huge amounts of depression and suicide in this community, in this population.
00:17:39.640It is a small population, thank goodness.
00:17:43.160But they are not preventing any of those things.
00:17:47.240In many cases, they are making it much, much worse.
00:17:50.900And they're doing it in the name of wokeness.
00:17:53.800Wokeness breeds weakness, and it is destroying, destroying lives.
00:18:01.960I think the leftists, you know, they all want to kill babies, kill babies, kill babies, abortion, abortion, abortion, all the way up to the moment of birth, maybe after.
00:18:11.700So since Roe v. Wade has been repealed and these decisions have been returned to the states, I think that they say, well, we couldn't kill them in the womb.
00:18:20.440Now we will kill their spirits at any time during their childhood by doing this devastating, mutilating, or irreversible surgery and transition on these poor kids.
00:18:36.600You know, and for the life of me, I don't know that the Republican Party nationally is doing enough to stand up and to speak to these issues.
00:18:46.380Because it all goes to parents' rights and the strength of the family in this country, all of which are being assaulted by the Marxist Dems.
00:18:56.880And then they want to pound their chest because they are facilitating, if indeed not indoctrinating and insisting on, this gender transitioning.
00:19:07.540It's, and it's sort of burst into our society so suddenly there are many people, I suppose, like me, who said, what in the world is going on?
00:19:23.480I'll be the first to say, I don't understand what is happening here, either its origins or the purpose of the Democratic Party in pushing it.
00:19:35.120It's, it's, it's, it's, you cannot grasp the concept and, and Mark Kelly, here in Arizona is at the forefront.
00:19:46.420They, they would love nothing more than mutilation of our children.
00:19:51.080And our, our superintendent of public instruction candidate on the Democrat side has created a, a chat room for these confused kids to be able to go in, speak with adults whose only qualifications are that they identify as LGBTQ, whatever, plus they are not counselors.
00:20:13.300They potentially are predators, they're putting our vulnerable kids, she is, this Kathy Hoffman, Tom Horn is running against her.
00:20:22.200He is the only choice for superintendent of public instruction.
00:20:26.100She's created this chat room where they can go and it even has an escape button, Lou, where if you're, if their mom or dad walks in and sees that, you know, and they don't want them to know what they're looking at, they can just push a button.
00:20:40.020And it looks like they're doing like a Google search.
00:20:46.520And it's all on the ballot and state after state across the country.
00:20:50.400It's, it is really, as I said, incomprehensible, I truly believe, to most Americans and to see it unfolding before our very eyes, to see the teachers unions supportive, driving the, the atmospherics and public education.
00:21:08.380The public schools used to be, well, used to be, they still are, are, are, I think our greatest institution equal, as an equalizer in our society, a place of great opportunity and enrichment.
00:21:22.760And to see it caught up in this, this web of depravity is, to me, just appalling.
00:21:42.800Well, they have public education, but it is substandard education compared to what private schools are able to get.
00:21:49.640And our schools are devolving into that because they've taken away the academics and the learning aspect.
00:21:56.780If you look at the reports on how, how terribly our children are doing since the COVID lockdown, since the school shutdowns that Democrats foisted upon us across this whole nation.
00:22:07.640They've replaced that kind of learning with indoctrination of our children on these kinds of issues, whether it's, there's no boys, there's, there's no such thing as a boy or a girl, confusing kids about everything, berating students who, who stand up and say they believe in God, saying that they need to be quiet about that.
00:22:30.300It, it is, it is such, such a shame because you're exactly right.
00:22:34.200I mean, Thomas Jefferson said, an educated electorate is what we need to be able to make sure that our country stays on track.
00:22:42.560And instead of education, Democrats have turned it into indoctrination.
00:22:48.460Well, there are enough forces of evil at work in this, in this country to, to sober anyone as we, as we look across what is happening to this great nation of ours.
00:23:00.620Let's turn to the great state of Arizona and let's, let's go through the race.
00:23:06.780Carrie Lake seems to be from, from way out here in the, the East.
00:23:12.600Uh, she seems like she is just tearing it up.
00:23:25.360She has got a great grasp on obviously communicating and calling out the mainstream media for their, uh, incompetence and their bias.
00:23:35.340And she has been, uh, studying policy since she got into this race so that she is ready to put together teams who are ready to lead in our state on everything from border security to the economy, to water, to homelessness, for goodness sake.
00:23:52.640Um, she's, she's the only candidate that's really even touched on that.
00:23:56.680And that's despite Lou, despite the media trying to destroy her.
00:24:02.540I just saw a story this morning that said in, in 2020, Republican candidates were covered, uh, negatively 88% of the time across the board in 2022 Republicans in general, it's, it's improved.
00:24:31.920They fear that, that MAGA movement, the America first movement, the, the love of our country, the love of our state and the competent people that are in place to make that a reality.
00:25:22.320What Carrie and Blake and Abe and, and Mark, all of them, but Carrie in particular shows that this is not a, uh, worship of Donald Trump that has been the issue.
00:25:34.880It is a love of our country that is the issue, and, and they, they wanted to make it all about Trump, and I love Trump, you know, you, you know, I love Trump, um, but this is not just about Donald Trump.
00:25:51.640It's about moving things, and it is certainly a movement, and with different people espousing that, not just President Trump, that's what they're afraid of.
00:26:00.020It's the widespread, uh, dissemination of the fact that we can make America great again, for real.
00:26:08.720Yeah, and I, and I understand, uh, your perspective in, in, in saying that.
00:26:13.560Uh, the, and it's one of the difficulties, uh, frankly, uh, is the left wants to ascribe worship, if you will, adulation, uh, to the, uh, MAGA Americans, uh, when it comes to Donald Trump.
00:26:28.200Uh, they support Donald Trump because he's right on the issues.
00:26:32.120They support Donald Trump because he's got the strength to lead, and they support, uh, Donald Trump because he actually kept his promises as he ran for president and carried out four years of his term and was denied another.
00:26:46.600Uh, let, let's turn to, uh, I, I want to talk about Mark Fincham, uh, as, uh, Secretary of State, how he's doing in the race.
00:26:58.200I don't know if you saw yesterday, just yesterday, he was kicked off Twitter for some strange reason.
00:27:06.220He, um, and, and I don't know who's still left there with, with Elon.
00:27:09.820I do love everything that's happening with Twitter, um, that there is a lot more freedom of speech and the, and I love to see the leftists actually.
00:27:18.440I love to see their heads exploding about it.
00:27:20.240Um, but Mark is doing very, very well.
00:27:25.860The Democrats are pouring millions of dollars into Arizona and into supporting his opponent and, and trying to lie, cheat, and steal to keep Mark Fincham out of that office.
00:27:38.940But I do not think they are going to be successful.
00:27:42.180We are working very, very hard to make sure that Mark Fincham is victorious November 8th and beyond, uh, even when they start finding more votes after the election for the Democrats.
00:27:54.120We are going to be working very, very hard to make sure that no one gets cheated out of what, uh, you know, their win and certainly not Mark Fincham.
00:28:03.360I, I, I want to also just, uh, interject, uh, it's important for everybody to know.
00:28:09.220Elon Musk personally made certain that that with eight days to go until the election at that point, uh, that, uh, Fincham got back his blue check, uh, and had full, full account, uh, and, and free to be using it on Twitter.
00:28:25.320Uh, we've got an unusual, uh, and, uh, thank goodness, uh, he is for real, uh, a leader, uh, and, uh, Elon Musk.
00:28:34.660I, I mean, it's terrific what he's doing already.
00:28:36.800And by the way, we should point out, as he has pointed out, he hasn't done anything yet to free up, uh, the algorithms and, uh, and some of the nonsense that's gone on.
00:28:48.000It's just naturally occurring, uh, is until he can build up his, uh, uh, uh, uh, moderation and mitigation board.
00:29:23.240Mark talks about ballots submitted outside the law.
00:29:27.360So, you know, whenever people start talking about fraud or they talk about illegal ballots, then it gets everybody's, um, you know, it gets their panties in a, in a bunch.
00:29:36.420And so, but votes outside the law or ballots outside the law that are submitted outside the law should not be counted.
00:29:43.900And I think that's very easy to understand.
00:29:46.120The Supreme Court has ruled, by the way, the Supreme Court has finally stepped in and ruled on that.
00:30:06.460Because when we have a strong Secretary of State who is seeking to make sure that our elections are transparent, are secure, and just wants to follow the law.
00:30:16.860His, his, his, uh, Fincham's, uh, slogan, slogan is just follow the law.
00:31:03.840And, and, uh, and, and have the people who are crossing illegally held accountable rather than rewarded.
00:31:12.160It seems very simple, but, uh, the Democrats, you know, it's loony, loony liberals, um, have loony ideas.
00:31:19.280I think that once we get this team into office, from Kerry to Mark to Abe to Tom Horn to Kimberly Yee, once they are in place, Arizona is going to shine.
00:31:34.020And we're going to show the nation and other states what they, too, can have if they put the right people in the right place at the right time.
00:31:42.180I want to, I want to deal with two issues before we let you go.
00:31:45.380One is, we understand Barack Obama is going to be right there in, in Arizona to boost the Democrats.
00:31:56.100I don't think Barack Obama can bring any undecided voters to the Democrats.
00:32:01.020And, in fact, maybe he can frighten some Democrats away from Katie Hobbs and the other people that he wants to, uh, try to, try to bring up.
00:32:09.800So, good, come on in, Barack, bring your leaf painting with you where you're peeking out of a leaf, sitting in a chair.
00:32:19.760You heard, you heard him getting booed with the FJB.
00:32:23.840Uh, I think that that very well could happen in Arizona.
00:32:26.700I'm not sure, but I don't think he adds anything to what's going on in Arizona.
00:32:31.900Well, you know, Barack Obama, I would, I was going to ask you if you had actually invited him in, because people forget that Barack Obama is the president who, from the time he entered office to the time he left, he lost 64 House seats.
00:32:51.700He lost, he lost, he lost 12 Senate seats.
00:32:56.880The Democratic Party controlled both houses.
00:33:00.500When he left, they didn't control either.
00:33:04.800And the Democrats lost 13 of 27 state legislatures that controlled both bodies of the legislature.
00:33:14.040Uh, when they, when he left, they, they had about half that.
00:33:18.940So, if the Democrats are desperate enough to put him on the campaign trail, uh, I think a lot of good things are going to happen in the state of Arizona and wherever else he touches down.
00:33:31.280So, I, secondly, I want to ask you about the Department of Justice.
00:33:37.580Apparently, they didn't notice that a district, a federal district court judge had ruled that it was perfectly all right to have poll watchers.
00:33:44.180That's, that's, the Justice Department, the, the Marxist-dim Justice Department, just is very concerned about voters as a result of poll watchers.
00:33:56.600The only one intimidating voters is the DOJ itself and their representatives and some of our Democrats, including the Democrat County Sheriff in Maricopa County.
00:34:08.600People who are watching boxes peacefully, they are not intimidating anyone, and I can tell you that they're not nearly as scary as those Black Panthers who, who had, uh, clubs in their hand under Obama.
00:34:22.120And Obama's Justice Department said that was just fine.
00:34:26.340So, if that's one, if that's the First Amendment standard that we go from, having little old ladies and men sitting in lawn chairs 75 feet away from an unmanned drop box is perfectly fine with me.
00:34:39.840Kelly Ward, chair of the Republican Party in the great state of Arizona.
00:34:45.120Kelly, we wish you and all of the great Republican candidates in Arizona a great, successful election day.
