00:15 I tell you what, I've been watching these polls for the governor's race and they're everywhere. I mean, these polls, you're like, and I'll give you a perfect example here. Hold on just a second. If you take a look at this and you go to interactive polls, insider polling has Pamela Ebbett at 19%, Alan Wilson 16%, Nancy Mase 13%, Rom Reddy 13%, 00:44 Ralph Norman 12%, they still include Josh Kimball coming in at 4 % rather. Then, so remember that, just real quick, Pamela Evans got leading the pack with 19%. And then if you go down and you look at some of these other polls, I mean, you go, wait a minute, is this even the same state? So here you've got another poll with Alan Wilson. 01:10 22%, Pamela Evitt at 17%, Ram Reddy 16%, Ralph Norman at 12, Nancy Mace at 12. That's from opinion diagnostics. Then you go to TPSI. They've got Nancy Mace at 31%. Pamela Vett at 26%, Ram Reddy 16%, Ralph Norman at 14, Alan Wilson at 13. I'm telling you what, and then, all right, here's another one. This is from... 01:40 Coefficient poll, the June 2nd through the 4th, Pamela Evitt, 23%, Rom Reddy, 17%, Alan Wilson, 16%, Ralph Norman, 15%, Nancy Mace, 11%. These things are scattered. mean, are y'all polling the same state people? But here's the thing you gotta be very careful about with these polls. Who 02:09 Are they polling? 02:12 Are they polling the general population? Is it just, hey, hey, Mr. and Mrs. So-and-so, who are you voting for? Are they voting, are they polling those people? Are they polling only Republicans? Then you have to take it and narrow it down a little bit. You have to go, are they polling Republican likely voters? 02:37 Not all the Republicans are going to vote today. We're going to see what the voter turnout. I'm predicting I'm going to be very gracious here. I'm going to be um very gracious, very generous with my prediction. 02:54 I'm gonna say 17%. I know, right? I'm thinking 17%. We'll see if I'm right on this. We'll see if I'm right on this, but I'm gonna say 17 % voter turnout. Are they polling like, oh, is, John said, it's raining out, you're right. Oh, yeah, I care about this state, but I don't wanna get wet. I just don't wanna get out there, I know, it happens. That's why I always say, I mean, early voting was a good idea for us. 03:22 But I'm going to say 17 % voter turnout. I might be wrong, but you poll general population, you poll Republican voters if they're Republican candidates, and then you poll likely Republican voters to narrow it down even more. And I'll be honest with you, I haven't dug into these polls um all of that much because a lot of them just came out just over the past couple of days. uh little issue. 03:53 little issue with the Pamela Yvette campaign. is minor, minor little incident of assault. I know, know, it's crazy, right? didn't, nothing really to see here. A man who the Pamela Yvette campaign says was a volunteer for the campaign was charged with assault outside of an Yvette campaign event ah on Monday night.

Now this is from FitzNews. 04:54 A member of South Carolina gubernatorial front runner Pam Levitt's campaign finance team was arrested in Greer on Monday night and charged with assault after ripping a megaphone out of the hands of a political opponent.
