After "God Bless America," she expressed her support for Harris in a speech before introducing Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff:
"For more than half of this country's life, women didn't have a voice. Yet, we raised children, we held our families together, we supported men as they made the decisions. But tomorrow, women will be a part of making this decision. Today, I am holding in my heart all the tough, tenacious women who made me who I am. I cast my vote for someone who will be President for all, for all Americans."

The Nov. 4 rally is Harris' last one before Election Day, on Nov. 5, 2024. Gaga joined other public figures, such has Oprah Winfrey, Ricky Martin and Jazmine Sullivan on the steps of the Art Museum of Philadelphia to rally support.
Gaga endorsed Harris and her running mate Tim Walz earlier this week, saying, "It's time to get ready to vote," in a video posted to Instagram:

Gaga supported current-President Joe Biden since his run for office. She spoke at a Biden-Harris rally in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the night before the 2020 election, and she performed the national anthem at Biden's inauguration.
In 2023, Biden appointed Gaga as the co-chair of the Committee on the Arts the Humanities, a board that advises the White House on matters of cultural policy.
