Democratic presidential aspirant Hillary Clinton was seen "keeping up with the Kardashians" while Republican presidential hopefuls were holding their first debate on Thursday night, and it looks like the family of reality stars will be casting their votes for her during the 2016 presidential race.

Clinton, who was in Los Angeles, had her picture taken with the show's stars, according to CNN. The social media-savvy family members promptly uploaded their selfies on Facebook and Instagram, all the while raving about Clinton.

Kim Kardashian, her husband Kanye West, and family matriarch Kris Jenner all attended an LA fundraiser, and this is where they met Clinton. They did not pass up the opportunity to rub elbows with the former First Lady, and Kim shared the photos on her Facebook page. "I got my selfie!!! I really loved hearing her speak & hearing her goals for our country! #HillaryForPresident," Kim wrote.

In fact, even before meeting Clinton, Kim tweeted that she would like to have her picture taken with the Democrat, and she even called Clinton "our next president."

Her mother Kris also had her picture taken with Clinton, which she promptly shared on her Instagram account (@krisjenner). "An Honor to meet you Hillary Clinton! Great evening... #ohjustchatting," she wrote.

Clinton told her supporters via e-mail that she would not be watching the GOP debate since she would be busy attending a speaking event in LA for home health care providers and consumers, followed by the fundraiser.

"I'm not watching, and I don't need to be. Donald Trump, Jeb Bush, Scott Walker, Marco Rubio—they all have the same agenda. They are out of step with the kind of country Americans want for themselves and their children," Clinton said.
