Taylor Swift has voted for U.S. Senate candidate Phil Bredesen, the singer confirmed in an Instagram post Tuesday afternoon.

In the photo, Swift poses with her mother Andrea Swift in front of a large sign supporting the candidate.

"These two Tennessee women voted for the candidate who has proven himself to be reasonable and trustworthy. We want leadership, not fear-based extremism," Swift said in the photo's caption.

Over the past month, Swift has been encouraging her followers to early vote across the nation, and has been sharing photos of people wearing various "I Voted" stickers on her social media.

Early voting runs through Thursday, Nov. 1 and Election Day is Nov. 6.

"Please don’t sit this one out," Swift wrote.

Swift garnered support and criticism earlier this month for endorsing Democrat Phil Bredesen for U.S. Senate over Republican Marsha Blackburn in an Instagram post encouraging her followers to vote.
