Taylor Swift lives above the chaos out here.

From "swiftboating"
to Swift voting!!
💙Harris/Walz 2024💙

90% of her songs are about the bad choices she made. Look at what happened with the football guy.

The larger influence is that if Swift causes a lot of younger voters to register and vote this time, they’ll likely continue to vote in the future. That will make a significant difference going forward as the Republican old-timers continue to age out.

[DougHanson]

Her influence and encouragement to many people is monumentally strong.

If you are voting for someone based on who your favorite popstar is voting for then you should not be voting. Ever.

Young people will see the impact of their votes to change history. Every vote counts! Go Swifities, shows us the power of your voice with your votes!

And now LULAC, the oldest and largest hispanic civil rights group in America that has never before endorsed a politician, has endorsed Harris/Walz.

Love Taylor Swift. She is doing the right thing.

What matter is that Swift declared that there are at least two big relevant issues for her: Women's rights and LGBTQ+ Equality. That's not a big leap for Swift fans to take, because everything she writes is from the perspective of a liberated woman.

Truly, the most important aspect of any election is how many celeb endorsements a candidate receives. Just ask President Hillary Clinton.

“Travis Kelce is set to follow Taylor Swift in endorsing Kamala Harris as the next President of the United States, according to a source who spoke to Daily Mail...” 11 Sept 2024 Daily Mail.

There’s already been 300k+ new voter registrations just from the link in her post. Say what you want but it will make an impact.

No one ever accused Swift as being a rocket scientist

[DemonratsRevil]

I think if you base your vote on a singers endorsement, you probably should reconsider whether or not you are educated enough to vote at all. Sometimes we need to think about the greater good if we aren’t willing to put the effort into learning about the world we live in.

[bborden]

I love Taylor, she's so smart and knows the difference between right and wrong. I'm a baby boomer and I believe the young people need to step forward and this is their chance. It is their future!

[DonnaC-wf]

Taylor is such a beautiful person and spreads so much joy! She's America's sweetheart 🎉GOODNESS WINS UNITE AMERICA HARRIS WALZ ❤🇺🇸💙

[bronzestarvue]

If people vote based entirely on who Taylor Swift endorses, that's pretty sad...just a bunch of drips from the shallow end of the gene pool...

[AstralTraveler]

I don't think it helps a lot but, it does not hurt with a celebrity of her magnitude. When you have a system where its the electoral college and not the popular vote, Swift being from PA can help just enough and if Trump loses that state, his path to the White House is very narrow.

The media is trying too hard at this rate to say a "GEN Z EXPERT", like please
