As the first polls are set to close on Election Day 2024, Charlie Kirk, founder and CEO of Turning Point USA, expressed concerns about the Republican turnout, stating that it is 'mixed' and 'not where we want it to be.'
Turning Point USA, a pro-Trump group, is among the organizations that former President Trump's campaign has collaborated with to conduct voter turnout operations.
Kirk took to social media to urge for increased voter participation, emphasizing the need for more people to vote. He encouraged supporters to reach out to everyone they know and amplify their efforts to boost turnout.
Reports indicate that Turning Point has invested significant resources in a get-out-the-vote campaign in key swing states such as Arizona and Wisconsin. Despite setting a target of $108 million for its 'ballot chasing' operation in the 2024 election, the organization reportedly fell short of this goal.
One of the strategies employed by Turning Point was the development of a voter mobilization app that provides access to detailed personal information of voters, enabling targeted outreach efforts. However, the app has faced criticism for its perceived lack of robust security measures to safeguard voters' information.
As the election unfolds, the focus remains on rallying Republican voters to increase turnout and ensure a strong showing at the polls. Kirk's remarks underscore the ongoing efforts to mobilize supporters and drive voter participation in the crucial 2024 election.
