Taylor Swift endorses Kamala Harris for president [1]

['Rob Beschizza']

Date: 2024-09-11

Signing her post as "Childless Cat Lady," pop star Taylor Swift last night endorsed Democrats Kamala Harris and Tim Walz for president and vice president in November's general election.

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. 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 took shots at Harris's opponent, who posted a faked AI video of Swift endorsing Republicans and whose own running mate has issued a series of contemptuous and insulting remarks about single women. She also encouraged her fans—and Swift has some 280m followers on Instagram—to register to vote.
