Taylor Swift fans have a blank space on their ballots this year, and they’re ready to write Kamala Harris’ name.
Swifties for Kamala — a grassroots group of Taylor Swift superfans working to get Harris elected — has quickly amassed a groundswell of support.
The group got its start the same day President Joe Biden dropped out of the race, after Emerald Medrano, a 22-year-old fan from Texas, decided he and his fellow Swifties needed to jump into the action.

“I feel like us U.S. Swifties should mass organize and help campaign for Kamala Harris and spread how horrendous Project 2025 would be to help get people’s butts down to the polls in November,” Medrano wrote in a post on X that day. “Like if we don’t want democracy to end we really need to move and push blue votes.”
Just a week and a half later, the group has a Discord server with more than 300 members and tens of thousands more followers on social media — and they’ve already heard from Harris’ campaign.
