On September 11, Taylor Swift posted on Instagram and made it clear that she will be voting for Kamala Harris in the upcoming US Presidential elections. Stating how she has done her research about the same, and has finally made up her mind.

She stated that she had made sure to “watch and read everything,” before landing on the decision, Taylor Swift explained that she watched the debate, and researched well by reading about the candidates to understand their “proposed policies and plans for this country.”

Taylor Swift said:

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

The Lovestory singer also mentioned Kamala Harris’ running mate Tim Walz, and said:

“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.”

Adding how she had “made her choice,” she urged the voters to research well, and then make a choice. Swift said:

“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. 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.”

For the unversed, the upcoming Presidential elections will be held on Tuesday, November 5, 2024. Initially, it was the current President, Joe Biden who was running against Donald Trump, however, a few months back, he stepped down and endorsed Kamala Harris in place of him as a candidate to become the next President of the country.

In her post declaring her vote for Kamala Harris, Taylor Swift also touched on the issue of an AI clip of her going viral, where she was seen endorsing Donald Trump. She clarified that the clip going viral was fake, and now is the time that she needs to be “transparent” about her “actual plans for this election as a voter.”

She said:

“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.”

Furthermore, Taylor Swift then signed her post “Childless Cat Lady” referencing Trump’s running mate, Sen. JD Vance’s words which he used to describe women who do not have kids. Along with the caption clarifying how her support is with Harris, Taylor Swift also shared a picture of herself holding her cat, Benjamin Button.
