Will Taylor Swift endorse Kamala? Swift’s political influence has grown in recent years, and her endorsement could significantly impact.
In 2018, Taylor Swift broke her long-held silence on political issues by endorsing Democratic candidates in Tennessee’s midterm elections. Since then, she has become increasingly vocal about her political views, particularly in the 2020 presidential election.
Swift openly supported Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, emphasizing the importance of electing leaders who prioritize the rights and safety of marginalized communities. Her influence on voter registration has been substantial, with over 102,000 individuals registering to vote within 48 hours of her 2018 post and over 35,000 new registrations in September 2023 following her encouragement on National Voter Registration Day.
With President Biden’s decision not to seek reelection and Vice President Harris’s announcement of her presidential bid, Swift’s devoted fans, known as Swifties, have already mobilized to support the Vice President online.
The account @Swifties4Kamala, which emerged shortly after Biden’s withdrawal, has attracted over 40,000 followers as of July 24th. The Swifties have been creatively engaging on platforms like TikTok, transforming some of Swift’s well-known songs into political anthems and producing video montages featuring Harris accompanied by tracks such as “Who’s That Girl” and “Look What You Made Me Do”.
While Swift has not yet made any official statements regarding her endorsement for the 2024 election, many are eagerly anticipating her possible support for Vice President Harris. Swift’s endorsement could be a significant asset to Harris’s campaign, given her massive popularity and influence.
In the past, Swift’s political involvement has had a tangible impact, driving voter registrations and inspiring her fans to engage in the political process. As the 2024 election approaches, the world waits with bated breath to see if Swift will once again use her voice to support a Democratic candidate and help shape the course of the nation.
