Clark on Wednesday explained why she liked Swift's endorsement, citing the need to bolster her own platform for political awareness.
"I have this amazing platform, so I think the biggest thing would be to encourage people to register to vote," Clark said. "...I think that's the biggest thing I can do with the platform that I have and that's the same thing Taylor did.
"And I think continue to educate yourself with the candidates that we have, the policies that they're supporting...that's what I would recommend to every single person that has that opportunity in our country."
Clark did not outright endorse either candidate when asked in the same question.
Along with her post, Swift also shared a link to a government website that directs users to state-specific voting information, which saw at least 337,000 people visit it.
