Taylor Swift - Madison's worst fear?

 Taylor Swift, a pop star and social media mogul, has come out with a political stance for the first time in her career. She has announced that she is a democrat, and has supported the democratic candidate in her republican-leaning state of Tennessee. The consequences of her announcement are broader than one may think - the director of communications for vote.org said that, after Taylor's announcement over instagram, there was a sharp spike in voter registration. It is possible the two events are unrelated, but the simple fact that Taylor Swift can access millions of dedicated fans with the tap of a button made me think of Madison's arguments about a broad republic. He said that such a republic would prevent any one person from influencing a significant number of people, especially from different sates, but Taylor has done just that. Her impact likely will not be that extreme, or, at least, not as extreme as what Madison feared. However, do you think that social media does have the power to break down some of the benefits of a broad republic? Has it done so already in other ways?https://www.theguardian.com/music/2018/oct/09/taylor-swift-pro-democrat-instagram-post-causes-spike-in-voter-registrations
