Beyoncé to Join Kamala Harris at Rally
October 24, 2024 at 10:22 am EDT By Taegan Goddard

Beyoncé will appear tomorrow night with Kamala Harris at her campaign rally in Houston, the Washington Post reports.

1. The Queen has arrived

And Beyoncé too

This seems to coincide with the news that there are more big name endorsements planned over the next two weeks.

[debm55]

23. I will be watching.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

2. Calling Taylor Swift!

The time is now to step into the fray. She has MILLIONS of fans as well in this country who could be a deciding factor in this election!

[Funtatlaguy]

4. She has disappointed me.

I know she has no obligation to do more than she has.
But she’s one of a few handful of people that could really make a difference in increasing voter turnout.

[Wiz Imp]

8. She is still in the middle of a tour.

It would be good if she could make an appearance for Harris but it may be difficult logistically. I wouldn't assume anything.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

10. Even on tour, she can make statements....

on the importance of VOTING in this election to her US fans.

She needs not make an appearance with Kamala Harris. THAT is what I meant about stepping into the fray. Swift has a lot of positive influence among her fans and their mothers via video and social media.

[questionseverything]

14. Swift endorsed Kamala immediately after the debate...

And the swifties have been working hard for Kamala since joe stepped down.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

16. How can anyone not know that?

Especially politically active Democrats?

[SomedayKindaLove]

25. Yeah voter registration immediately surged after she backed Harris

And she has had voter registration booths at her concerts. Extremely pleased with her efforts here.

[Botany]

29. What are you talking about? She put her ass and career on the line to support blue candidates and issues.

And after she endorsed Harris she got hundreds of thousands of Swifties to register to vote
after Harris announced her candidacy. She is a major business with many people depending
on her for employment right now with her tour and that is pretty damn important.

[Funtatlaguy]

12. Imagine if her/Kelce

appeared at a rally introducing Harris.
MAGA heads would explode 🤯 if she and her NFL boyfriend did that.
I can dream, I guess. lol.

[grammiepammie]

15. Taylor Swift

She is on tour. She got thousands of younger people to register, put her full support behind Kamala. She has done a lot.

[littlemissmartypants]

24. She has.

Criticism of Ms. Swift is no way to win friends.

Maybe it went past so fast you might have missed it but she's already been in the fray.

3. Yes, we can't ignore an opportunity to reach any voters. it's all hands on deck!

[Wiz Imp]

5. Excellent.

I'm not convinced Harris can win Texas (it's still a longshot ) but this should help with voter enthusiasm overall and might just be enough to push Allred past or Cruz.

[Funtatlaguy]

6. Would love to see more males

Especially black and Hispanic males who are considered “influencers” endorse Harris.

[Wiz Imp]

9. Didn't Marc Anthony do something recently?

He's still very big in the latin community.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

11. Yes he did.

[Wiz Imp]

19. Also, it didn't make a big splash nationally

But several Pittsburgh Steelers players who are in the Hall of Fame publicly endorsed Harris before their game Sunday. That definitely got a lot of attention in Pittsburgh.

[Rocknation]

35. And I'd like to see more dark-skinned black women

Megan The Stallion's home state is Texas, but she stumped for Kamala in Atlanta.

[mcar]

7. Oh yeah!

[ananda]

13. Cool! It means Allred and the presidency are in play in Texas!

Wow

[MagickMuffin]

18. I hope it's true, the text I received said Beyonc mother will be there

Perhaps Beyoncé has been added. It did mention additional information coming.

Here’s the text

Willie Nelson
DJ Tryfe
Tina Knowles (Beyoncé mother)

More details to coming soon


I’d love to drive down, but not sure if I’d get in.

20. Tyler Pager and Michael Scherer at WaPo broke the story

...politicalwire is monetizing off of the link (what they do).

[Bluesaph]

21. Woohooo! I'll be there!

So excited!!!

[Lonestarblue]

22. Awesome!

[dlk]

26. I hope Collin Allred is there

He needs to focus the remainder of his campaign on Harris County.

[onetexan]

27. Whoa Kamala's having a rally? i thought she was there stumping for Allred & having a podcast.

[missaj]

28. I would like to see more athletes speak up.

The NFL is king in this country. Football stars endorsing her would have more impact than singers. Unfortunately, too many NFL players are scared to wade into politics for fear of alienating their fan base and losing money.

[LisaM]

30. Not to mention alienating the owners.

I love football, but many or probably most of the owners are Republicans.

[BonnieJW]

32. Especially

after that But face player who wants to keep women pregnant and fixing dinner

[liberalla]

31. There she is! Beyonce!

[BonnieJW]

33. Where are you watching?

[liberalla]

37. Oh, I'm not seeing anything now, I was imagining the moment she appears tomorrow!

I'm at work right now. No loud music, no dancing, no inspirational speeches here... darn.

[Coexist]

34. THAT'S why she's going to Houston!

Makes so much sense now

[LetMyPeopleVote]

36. Beyonc will appear alongside Vice President Kamala Harris for the first time on the campaign trail at a Houston rally
