Taylor Swift managed to drive record-breaking numbers to voter registration website Vote.org after urging her 232 million followers on Instagram to take action.

On Tuesday (19 September), hours after the pop star, 32, called on her US fanbase to register to vote in honour of National Voter Registration Day, Vote.orgā€™s communication director, Nick Morrow, announced that ā€œour site was averaging 13,000 users every 30 minutesā€.

ā€œFun fact: after @taylorswift13 posted on Instagram today directing her followers to register to vote on @votedotorg, our site was averaging 13,0000 users every 30 minutes,ā€ Morrow wrote on X/Twitter.

ā€œ13! Letā€™s just say her reputation for being a mastermind is very well-earned.ā€

Earlier that day, the ā€œAnti-Heroā€ singer had posted to her Story, asking followers: ā€œAre you registered to vote yet?

    Her music is so neutral that not being a fan means you are actively opposing her.

    She isnā€™t my cup of tea, but she has a couple songs I vibe with.

        Yeah, after I reread it this morning, I got a good chuckle out of it as I was editing it.

      Iā€™m not sure I understand.

      I donā€™t agree with that line of thought. The taste of hospital food is also very neutral but I wouldnā€™t say Iā€™m a fan of it. I also wouldnā€™t say Iā€™m actively opposing it, and if served it in a situation where I canā€™t get anything else I wouldnā€™t snub my nose at it, but it wouldnā€™t be my first choice.

          How did you come to that conclusion?

          ā€œnot being a fan means you actively oppose herā€

          ā€œIā€™m not a fan, but I donā€™t actively oppose herā€ (by way of hospital food analogy)

          ā€œokayā€¦ So you agree with me?ā€

          Do you think ā€œnot a fan ofā€ means ā€œdislikeā€?

      if you arenā€™t a fan you are against her.

      You literally just tried to make it that deep when it comes to Taylor Swift bro.
