Note on Harris sign in supporter's front yard goes viral – 'made me cry'

In the days following the 2024 US presidential election, a message received by a Kamala Harris supporter gained viral attention.

In a video that has been viewed over 2 million times, Rachel (@hairbyraynhigh on TikTok) shared how she was unexpectedly left a message of support on her doorstep. Just hours after election results confirmed Donald Trump's victory over Harris, Rachel, who had prominently displayed a Harris campaign sign, saw a man come to the front door and leave a sticky note.

In the video, she explained: “Someone came to our front door today after the election results and left me an orange Post-It note. I was afraid it might be something negative because of our Harris sign.”

But when Rachel went outside to look at the note, she revealed a heartwarming message of support: “Thank you for fighting for me. I will continue to fight.”

The TikToker's emotional reaction was clear. In the video she said: “Thanks for this, stranger. We will always fight too.” The video's caption added: “My heart is broken but this helped me put it back together. Thank you, whoever you are.”

The election, which saw Trump return to the presidency with at least 295 Electoral College votes, has disheartened many Harris supporters.

In his speech to a somber crowd of supporters, Harris acknowledged the result while urging Americans to “never give up” on their ideals. It is against the backdrop of this admission that stories like Rachel's emerge as symbols of resilience for people struggling with their own disappointment.

With millions of views on TikTok, the video sparked reactions from people online in the form of a Post-it note. People shared their reactions in the comments. User @BramFam89 said: “I'm keeping my registration for the next 4 years here in Utah.”

While viewer Sarah Phillips said: “I baked cookies all night last night as a distraction. I dropped them off at houses that were registered today.”

TikToker Liz Manspeaker said she even received a similar message from someone nearby: “I received a similar kind message on my doorstep today. This makes me realize that we are fighting for the right issues and you must continue the fight,” she wrote.

Commentator Sabrina said: “This just made me cry even more. We must keep fighting, especially for those who cannot.”
