TAYLOR SWIFT JUST ENDORSED KAMALA HARRIS, Faith. THIS IS HUGE!!!
After watching the debate, a certain childless cat lady decided to chime in with her thoughts. Taylor Swift has officially endorsed Kamala Harris. 🥳
Like many Americans, Taylor wants to cast her vote for a warrior who will champion the issues that matter most – not someone who is stuck on irrelevant things (like crowd sizes… something Taylor knows a lot about) from the past.
This endorsement is huge, Faith. But not for the reasons you think…
Last night, Taylor Swift posted her endorsement to her 283M Instagram followers and the post garnered almost 8 million likes in 9 hours. Swifties tend to be younger – 63% of her fans are between 18-34 years old – and they come out huge for the singer. From selling out areas to putting the screws to Ticketmaster, Swifties are able to accomplish a lot. It's why they are a significantly influential voting bloc in the US.
Taylor encouraged her followers to do their research and register to vote. Last year, Taylor made a similar post encouraging her fans to register to vote. In the moments after, Vote.org reported over 35 thousand new voter registrations.
Taylor Swift knows how to reach an audience – hell, she can actually fill stadiums unlike someone else we know… But it is the influence she has over young audiences that can help us turnout record numbers in this election. Taylor Swift's influence can help us cut through a crowded media environment and reach voters who are tuned out of this pivotal election – especially young folks who have the power to tilt this election in a big way.
Even though it was clear as day that Kamala Harris won the debate last night, this election is far from over. The polls still show this race as too close for comfort especially in the few swing states that will ultimately decide the election.
Everyday, Leaders We Deserve is reaching voters to help elect Kamala Harris and our slate of young, progressive candidates. While our jobs just got a tad bit easier thanks to Taylor, we still have a huge mountain to climb if we want to win in November.
We are never ever ever ever going back to a Trump presidency. Like ever.
