While recently speaking to reporters, Governor Gavin Newsom of California urged Swift to back Biden's re-election campaign.
"Taylor Swift stands tall and unique. What she was able to accomplish just in getting young people activated to consider that they have a voice and that they should have a choice in the next election, I think, is profoundly powerful," he shared.

"I think she’s using her celebrity [status] for good. Republicans are critical of her encouraging people to register to vote, which says everything you need to know about the voter suppression going on in the Republican party," Newsom added.
Swift's personal political views could have a major impact on the election, as 18 percent percent of voters are "more likely" or "significantly more likely" to vote for the "Cruel Summer" singer's chosen candidate, according to Newsweek.
"She's influenced popular culture, sports, the economics of entire regions of the U.S. So why not politics and elections?" communications consultant James Haggerty dished to the outlet.
