Share

Right after the presidential debate wrapped up on Tuesday, Sept. 10, the Harris-Walz ticket received a major celebrity endorsement from Taylor Swift. The ‘Cruel Summer’ singer posted on Instagram her support for the Democratic ticket, saying Harris “fights for the rights and causes” she believes in.

“Recently I was made aware that AI of ‘me’ falsely endorsing Donald Trump’s presidential run was posted to his site. It really conjured up my fears around AI, and the dangers of spreading misinformation,” Swift said. “It brought me to the conclusion that I need to be very transparent about my actual plans for this election as a voter. The simplest way to combat misinformation is with the truth.”

Swift posted an image of her holding a cat and signed her post as “childless cat lady” in a reference to comments made by Trump’s running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, years ago.

“I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election. I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them,” Swift said. “I think she is a steady-handed, gifted leader and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos. I was so heartened and impressed by her selection of running mate @timwalz, who has been standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a woman’s right to her own body for decades.”

Swift has previously been vocal in her support for Democrats in elections at the local and presidential level. Swift encouraged her 280 million followers to do their research, register to vote, and that “the choice is theirs.”

“I’ve done my research, and I’ve made my choice. Your research is all yours to do, and the choice is yours to make,” Swift said. “I also want to say, especially to first time voters: Remember that in order to vote, you have to be registered! I also find it’s much easier to vote early. I’ll link where to register and find early voting dates and info in my story.”
