Taylor Swift’s endorsement of Kamala Harris appears to have backfired.

According to a new YouGov poll released Saturday, only eight percent of voters said the superstar’s approval would see them “somewhat” or “much more likely” to vote for Harris.

The poll also found that twenty percent of those surveyed would be less likely to vote for her after the endorsement.

Immediately after the Trump-Harris TV debate on Tuesday, Swift posted on Instagram: “I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them.”

Her post drew 10.4 million likes and the vote.gov website received 405,999 visitors in the 24 hours after Swift shared a custom URL with followers.
