Taylor Swift fans are celebrating Kamala Harris' running mate Tim Walz as a certified 'Swiftie VP'

Some Swifties online have happily endorsed Tim Walz, Kamala Harris' pick for VP, after finding his tweets about The Eras Tour and "Taylor Swift Day."

• Vice President Kamala Harris has selected Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate.
• Some of Taylor Swift's fans have celebrated her choice on social media, dubbing Walz "one of us."
• Walz has tweeted about The Eras Tour and proclaimed two "Taylor Swift Days" in Minnesota last year.

Taylor Swift fans are rejoicing after Vice President Kamala Harris selected Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate.

After the announcement Tuesday, Swifties quickly unearthed Walz's tweets and statements about their musical idol.

In November 2022, shortly after Ticketmaster bungled the general sale for Swift's Eras Tour, Walz shared an anguished-looking photo of his cat: "Afton after being online all day and not getting Taylor Swift tickets," Walz wrote on X. (Swift famously loves cats and owns three.)

Ticketmaster's underwhelming response sparked uproar among Swifties; since then, Walz has continued to advocate for consumer rights and anti-monopoly regulations. Earlier this year, he signed the so-called "Taylor Swift Bill," which guarantees more transparency and protection for people buying tickets online, into law in Minnesota.

Swifties were also delighted that Walz proclaimed two "Taylor Swift Days" in Minnesota last year, June 23 and 24, to celebrate The Eras Tour coming to US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.

"As followers of music and Taylor Swift's fans know all too well, Swift is one of the world's most influential, top-earning artists in the music and entertainment industry," Walz wrote in the official document that he shared on X, weaving in a reference to Swift's fan-favorite song, "All Too Well."

The pun-filled document also included nods to song titles like "Wildest Dreams," "Mastermind," "Lover," and "The 1."

The fan account @Swifties4Kamala, which aims to mobilize Swift's passionate fan base and raise money for Harris' campaign, shared an enthusiastic reaction to Walz's announcement using a familiar strategy.

"A proclamation for 'Taylor Swift Days'? That's our man!" the tweet reads, referring to lyrics from Swift's No. 1 song "Willow."

Many more of Swift's fans were happy to endorse Walz on social media, dubbing the governor a "confirmed Swiftie" and "one of us! One of us!"

"SWIFTIE VP!! TICKETMASTER COUNT YOUR DAYS BABYYYYY!!!!!!!!" one fan wrote on X, collecting over 43,000 likes at the time of writing.

Some of Swift's fans have already made friendship bracelets in honor of Walz — a longtime Eras Tour tradition that was inspired by the lyrics in Swift's song "You're On Your Own, Kid." ("So make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it / You've got no reason to be afraid.")

One fan's bracelet reads, "Long live the Walz," a nod to the lyric, "Long live the walls we crashed through / How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you."

However, Swift isn't the only pop star who's won Walz's support. Last year, Walz also declared July 20 as "Beyoncé Day" in Minnesota to mark her arrival for the Renaissance World Tour, thrilling members of the Beyhive on social media. "He really gets it," one fan wrote.

Beyoncé has already granted Harris permission to use her song "Freedom" during campaign events after gifting the vice president tickets to the Renaissance World Tour.

As for Swift, she has not yet endorsed Harris or publicly spoken about the 2024 presidential election. She previously endorsed President Joe Biden in 2020 and criticized then-president Donald Trump for "stoking the fires of white supremacy and racism."
