Taylor Swift is making a big impact in Pennsylvania.
Taylor Swift’s endorsement of Harris appears to have had a huge impact, especially in Pennsylvania, according to Tom Bonier of Target Smart, a D.C.-based political data company. Voters under 30 accounted for 61% of all new registrations during the period from September 11 to September 13 this year, compared to 45% in 2020. The number of Hispanic women under 30 increased by 188%, and the number of black women under 30 increased by 137%. And perhaps most encouragingly, Democratic registration increased by 88%.
For the Democratic Party to win in Pennsylvania, high voter turnout is key. trump all Operating in the state is based on the assumption that the election will be a primary slugfest. The higher the Democratic turnout in Pennsylvania, the better Kamala Harris’s chances. It’s about winning the country.
Taylor Swift has the potential to bring the kind of young female voters to the polls who could win in states where narrow margins have become the norm in presidential elections.
Getting young people to vote is important, but getting them to vote is how elections are decided.
If Taylor Swift’s endorsement helps reshape the electorate in Pennsylvania, it will probably have the same effect in swing states across the country.
