On Tuesday night, Caitlin Clark “liked” Taylor Swift’s Instagram post endorsing Kamala Harris for president, and when asked about it the next day, she gave a thoughtful response. 

A reporter asked Clark what Swift’s post meant to her and whether she, too, would endorse Harris for president. Clark handled the question gracefully, focusing on the importance of civic engagement.

“I think for myself, I have this amazing platform, so I think the biggest thing would be to encourage people to register to vote,” Clark said. “At 22, this is my second time voting in an election. I could vote when I was 18. So I think, do that. That’s the biggest thing I can do with the platform that I have. That’s the same thing Taylor did.”

She added, “And I think continuing to educate yourself on the candidates and the policies they support is the most important thing. That’s what I recommend to every single person who has that opportunity in our country.”

Unlike Swift, Clark did not officially endorse a candidate but did use her platform to encourage people to involve themselves in the political process.

Clark and the Indiana Fever return to the court Wednesday night to host the Las Vegas Aces at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
