If Swift's endorsement makes a big impact, I'm all for it, but I just have difficulty imagining it making that much of a difference. Was anyone actually expecting her to be a Trumper?

She has a bit of a cult following. If she seems to indicate something is important it could make an impact.
Voter turnout, new voters. It's a big deal..
Well, I admit... personally I don't get it, but bravo to her! Anything that keeps the Orange Demon out of the White House again is fine by me.
I’ve seen a lot of people today who used to love to say “snowflake” get very upset about a self made 34 year old billionaire simply endorsing the sitting Vice President. Weird.
Also, these same people like to think they are defenders of “freedom” and yet when someone exercises said freedoms they get bent of out shape.
Isn’t it doubly ironic?

This lady doesn't play when it comes to that woman's right to choose thing. She actually is way more articulate than trump...and probably Kamala... Her opinion is hers:
Wop, your posts just keep getting worse and worse.
Grandpa discovered Tiktok this evening.
Dolly and Linda?!?
Trump and JD done f@cked up, big time.
To be fair, that's like asking if anyone bought a product based on a marketing campaign. Many people insist that they are unaffected by marketing, but the real answer is yes--otherwise corporations wouldn't spend billions of dollars on marketing.
Kinda funny that she went with the women's right to vote thing...since that required federal legislation to be available to all women everywhere. And in NC, the districts are so extremely gerrymandered that's there won't be a Dem majority in my lifetime so women here are at the mercy of the NCGOP. BTW, only 18 states allow citizens to initiate amendments to the state constitution. NC isn't one of them...it requires a 60% vote in each state house so there is NO way that women here will "have a voice" in their reproductive health.
Articulate? Methinks she's kinda ignorant. But she's a MAGAt so that tracks.
You have trouble processing things and you are a hapless rube. Do better.
Wait a cotton pick'n minute! You mean Americans aren't sitting around waiting for a celebrity to tell them how to vote!

Swift is unlikely to transform Trump voters into Harris voters, or vice versa. But she could convince some non-voters to turn out for Harris.

It's not the "existing voters" that will be impacted here.
It's the younger crowd, who do not show up in most polls, and usually sit elections out.
And 8% of voters is now "small"???
Again. According to the article, not me.

Jeez, I hope so. It would be incredibly bizarre for most voters to be effected by a single endorsement, no matter who it is.
Seems like a strawman, or like the internet MAGAs like to say...copium.
Weird...we're 4 posts into identifying my sarcastic "shock" of this revelation.
I don't think in this instance it's like people will be swayed to vote for Harris because Taylor endorsed her I think the effect will come from her bringing attention to the issue to people who wouldn't normally pay any attention to politics and now they will. She had an effect on the nfl it wouldn't be shocking if the same effect happened in this arena
Honestly, 8% is massive. Like, more than I believe could be true.Wait a cotton pick'n minute! You mean Americans aren't sitting around waiting for a celebrity to tell them how to vote!

Imagine being a real estate agent and Taylor showed up to your open house. I wonder what that effect would be.

My reaction would to be sarcastic, in writing.
I was gunna say, sure it's not a large percentage, but in elections, that's big. 8% could be a deciding vote.
Key word is most. Just a few points makes a massive difference in an election like this.
In a close election this obviously has an impact. Heck, it may have more impact than the debate.Taylor Swift Drove Nearly 338K People to Vote.gov With Kamala Harris Endorsement Post

Anyone saying Swift’s endorsement does not make a difference does not have a clue on what an icon she is for Gen Z and Millennials (and a lot of Gen X moms)
She is going to get a ton of the 18-42 demographic, especially females, who are not into politics and were not a guarantee to vote (or even registered to vote) now all guaranteed to be registered to vote and to vote for Harris.
The story of this election was always going to be if the millennials and GenZ show up for Democrats. So far they have disappointed a bit due to low voter turnout. They turn out big and this election could be a landslide.

2% could be a massive shift
I was stunned to see Texas listed as a "Leans Republican" on one of the election maps.
"Leans"? Wow
