Earlier, when voting was ongoing, Gomez had taken to X to share a video, urging people to continue standing in lines and make sure they vote: "Hey guys, I hear that there are really, really long lines today. And I just wanted to make this video really quick to say: Please stay in the line. Long lines are really frustrating and annoying, and I know they're not fun, but we need your voice and vote for your future."
