Taylor Swift took to Instagram on Tuesday morning to encourage her fans — referred to as “Swifties” — to vote in the Super Tuesday primary elections. The pop singer has thus far refrained from endorsing any candidates in the 2024 presidential election, despite speculation she may back President Joe Biden.
The mega-star urged her fans to support politicians who best represent their interests but made no formal endorsements. “I wanted to remind you guys to vote the people who most represent YOU into power. If you haven’t already, make a plan to vote today,” she said.
Swift’s notable lack of a direct endorsement for any candidate comes amidst wide speculation among national political circles regarding her potential influence on the election. Many analysts have highlighted the enormous power of Swift’s social media presence and zealous fanbase. In past years, the singer was known for mobilizing her fans to contribute to various causes, drawing the attention of high-profile figures such as NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. The Biden and Trump campaigns have expressed their regard for Swift’s potential influence.
Swift has remained coy about whether she will endorse a candidate in the upcoming presidential election. If and who Swift might endorse has drawn increasing public debate. In 2020, Swift endorsed Joe Biden against then-President Donald Trump. She also backed several Democrat candidates in Tennessee during the 2018 mid-term elections.
