Taylor Swift endorses VP Kamala Harris for President of the United States

By Milton Kirby – Atlanta, GA – September 11, 2024

Shortly after the 2024 Presidential Debate, hosted by ABC News, Taylor Swift announced on her official Instagram Page that she would be voting for Vice President Kamala Harris in the upcoming election. As of our writing today, her post has received 8.5 million likes.

In her post Taylor said, “Like many of you, I watched the debate tonight. If you haven’t already, now is a great time to do your research on the issues at hand and the stances these candidates take on the topics that matter to you the most. As a voter, I make sure to watch and read everything I can about their proposed policies and plans for this country,” Swift wrote on Instagram, shortly after the conclusion of Harris’ debate with former President Donald Trump, her Republican rival, on ABC News.

“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. 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. I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election.”

Swift also said she was “so heartened and impressed” by Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz being chosen as Harris’ running mate, adding that he “has been standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a woman’s right to her own body for decades.”

Swift concluded her post by encouraging fans to register to vote and to vote early if they can, saying she would share links in her Instagram story on how to do so.

She signed off her post with her name and “Childless Cat Lady” — a callback to a 2021 comment from Sen. JD Vance, in which he smeared Harris and other Democrats for not having biological children, and a reference to her owning three cats.

Swift released her debut album, “Taylor Swift,” on October 24, 2006, under the Big Machine Records imprint. She has since been awarded 14 Grammys from 52 nominations. Swift wrote her third album all by herself and released it when she was 20 years old. It marked her transition into more of a pop sound, though you can still hear the country influence. The album sold 1 million copies in the U.S. in its first week, ultimately going platinum six times.

Taylor is one of the most prolific and influential recording artists currently recording and performing.
