Kamala Harris wins TikTok

already more than a million followers - Kamala Harris wins TikTok

The Neuwahlers could be the swing voters in this year's groundbreaking US Presidential election. It seems that the designated candidate of the Democrats, Vice-President Kamala Harris (59), is aware of this as well. After TikTok was recently flooded with memes related to Harris, the 59-year-old joined the social media platform officially. And with great success in a short time.

Harris has amassed over a million followers and 1.6 million likes (as of 26th July) on TikTok, and she follows no other account. Her chosen slogan on her profile reads "When we fight, we win". A short first video, which has been viewed over 4 million times, reveals why she joined TikTok. She learned about the hype surrounding her person there and thought "I should come here myself".

Clearly, this is a clever move. After all, the app is particularly popular among Gen Z, a large number of potential first-time voters. But even Donald Trump (78) has had an official TikTok account for a longer time, and his numbers are still far greater than Harris's. His profile currently has 9.2 million followers and 23.1 million likes.

The Harris boom continues

Since the resignation of the current US President Joe Biden (81), Harris is seen as the next challenger to Republican Trump for entry into the White House. The initial poll numbers for Harris may have given the Democrats some encouragement.

The outgoing President had also previously suggested Harris as his successor and confirmed this in his first address to the nation after his resignation letter. Harris is "experienced, tough, and capable. She was an incredible partner for me and a leader for our country. Now the decision is yours, the American people."
