You may recall at the DNC when former First Lady Michelle Obama spoke about the upcoming election, she urged everyone to “do something”. Whether that something be knocking on doors, making phone calls, sending postcards, whatever.

This past Tuesday following the Presidential debate in which Kamala Harris hung SHITHOLE out to dry, Taylor Swift did something by going on Instagram and endorsing Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. In doing so she also left a link to the vote.gov website for her readers to click. And click they did. There were precisely 405,999 clicks.

Now who exactly was clicking, nobody knows. And what they did after they arrived at the vote.gov site is unknown. Because you cannot register to vote from the vote.gov site. Voter registration is done by states, and the site directs visitors to their state election websites for voting information.

My guess is that there was a percentage of people, like myself, who clicked the link although we are already registered. There was probably a percentage of people clicking the link although they are not old enough or are ineligible to vote. There was probably a percentage of people clicking the link although they don’t even live in the United States. There was probably even a percentage of people who clicked the link more than once. Just for the hell of it. There was probably even a percentage of people who made it to their respective state voter registration site and registered to vote. As nice as it would’ve been, it was not 405,999 people registering to vote. It was just that many people clicking.

But Taylor did something. She let the world know where to start the process of registering to vote. Now it’s up to us to take it further, get ourselves registered, and then VOTE! Because we really don’t do ANYTHING unless we at least do THAT.
