The global fixation over Taylor Swift and her "Eras Tour" has impacted everything from politics to the National Football League (NFL). After she made a single Instagram post last year while on tour, approximately 35,000 of her fans registered to vote. Having endorsed Joe Biden in 2020, the President's campaign is hoping to again tap into her influence for the current election year.
