Santa Clara Mayor Lisa Gillmor says she has no regrets changing the name of her city to Swiftie Clara for the weekend. Gillmor says benefits from the so called, "Swift Surge" are undeniable.

"Our hotels which are traditionally slow during the summer are close to capacity or at capacity. This by far had the most impact upon us culturally and financially," said Gillmor.
