The final video that Charlie Kirk recorded before his assassination has been released ahead of a huge memorial for the key ally and friend of President Trump.
“This is the last videos that we had Charlie record before he was taken from us,” Turning Point Action COO Tyler Bowyer said as he shared the clip on X late Tuesday.
The footage showed the now-murdered Turning Point founder encouraging Arizona residents to register to vote ahead of the 2026 governor’s race.
“It’s game time, Arizona, but you can’t make plays if you’re not on the team,” Kirk said. “Register to vote now and lock in your early voting game plan. 2026 is Arizona’s Championship game and we need our whole team on the field,” Kirk said in the video.
“Next year’s Arizona election is our chance to turn the game around and it starts with you getting ready to vote. Arizona’s counting on you to bring home the win,” he concluded, directing supporters to the Turning Point Action website where they could register to vote.
Bowyer said he waited to drop the video on National Voter Registration Day. “Honor Charlie and take just TWO minutes to update your registration or register a friend or family member,” wrote Bowyer alongside the clip
Kirk founded Turning Point USA when he was just 18, and was credited by President Trump with energizing young Republicans and helping secure the 2024 election.
Trump is set to provide remarks this Sunday at a huge memorial for the activist at the 63,000-capacity State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.

Vice President JD Vance will also speak at this weekend’s service, after hosting his late friend’s weekly show Monday from the White House.
Other confirmed speakers include Kirk’s widow, Erika, and prominent members of the Trump administration including Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth and Stephen Miller.
Kirk, a father of two, was killed last Wednesday after he was hit by a single shot while speaking at a Turning Point USA event at Utah Valley University.
The suspected killer, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, appeared in court for the first time on Tuesday after he was caught on Friday following a two-day manhunt.
