"I'm voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them," Swift said.
She continued: "I think she is a steady-handed, gifted leader and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos. I was so heartened and impressed by her selection of running mate @timwalz, who has been standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a woman’s right to her own body for decades."
Despite rampant social media speculation about Swift's political beliefs, she previously endorsed President Joe Biden and Harris in 2020 and has called Trump a "homophobic racist" in the past.
The singer stayed mum in the 2016 matchup between Trump and Hillary Clinton. She kicked the hinges off the political closet in 2018 endorsing U.S. Senate candidate Phil Bredesen, U.S. Rep. Jim Cooper in his 2018 re-election bid to Tennessee's 5th Congressional District, and Biden in the 2020 race for president with Harris as his running mate.
"I will proudly vote for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in this year's presidential election. Under their leadership, I believe America has a chance to start the healing process it so desperately needs," she told V Magazine at the time.
