(New York, NY) – On Tuesday night, Taylor Swift endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris, praising her as a “steady-handed, gifted leader.” In an Instagram post to her 283 million followers, Swift announced her support for Harris and running mate Tim Walz, highlighting Harris’ dedication to causes she believes in. She also commended Walz for his long standing advocacy on LGBTQ+ rights and women’s issues.

Swift encouraged her followers, specifically first-time voters, to register and vote early, sharing resources on where to register. She also responded to misinformation, addressing AI-generated images falsely depicting her as endorsing Trump. Swift condemned the fake content and emphasized the importance of transparency.

Swift’s endorsement, a surprise to Harris’ campaign, was seen as a significant boost following Harris’ debate performance. Walz expressed appreciation for Swift’s support during a live interview. Swift’s political involvement has increased since her 2020 documentary “Miss Americana,” which highlighted her activism. In the 2020 election, she supported Biden and Harris, contributing to their campaign with her song “Only the Young.”

The endorsement was well-received by a section of Swift’s fan group, dubbed Swifties for Kamala, who are excited about the added momentum. In response, Trump criticized Swift’s choices, suggesting they could impact her commercial success.
