When Taylor Swift speaks, people listen—especially when it comes to politics! Recently, the “Blank Space” singer endorsed Kamala Harris for president following the heated September 10th debate.

Shortly after the televised political showdown, Taylor Swift took to social media to share a link to Vote.gov with her massive 238 million Instagram followers. And the results? Nothing short of jaw-dropping! Within just 15 hours of her post, a whopping 337,826 people had clicked on the custom link she shared, according to a spokesperson for the U.S. General Services Commission.

On her Instagram story in question, Taylor Swift praised Kamala Harris as a “steady-handed, gifted leader” and a “warrior” for LGBTQ+ rights and women’s reproductive freedoms. The candidate’s campaign wasted no time capitalizing on the endorsement, releasing Harris-Walz friendship bracelets for sale, which quickly sold out—a nod to the friendship bracelet trend the singer popularized on her Eras Tour.

Following Taylor Swift’s endorsement, the Harris & Walz campaign website is now selling friendship bracelets:
