Taylor Swift has endorsed Kamala Harris for president just moments after the end of her presidential debate against Donald Trump.
In an Instagram post on Tuesday night, the pop star said she had done her “research”.
“I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election,” she said. “I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them.”
Swift went on to call Harris a “steady-handed, gifted leader”.
“I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos,” she wrote in the post.
Swift announced the news alongside a photo of her with a cat.
She signed the post “Childless Cat Lady”, a reference to comments made by Donald Trump’s vice-presidential candidate JD Vance.
The Ohio senator has faced a backlash from a 2021 clip in which he called several prominent Democrats – including Ms Harris – “a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives”.
