Has Hillary Clinton turned to the one and only Olivia Pope for some campaign advice?

The presidential hopeful surprised the cast of ABC's Scandal when she stopped by the set on Monday during a fundraising tour in Los Angeles.

When Clinton first announced her plans to run, Kerry Washington, who stars as D.C. fixer Olivia Pope, told Entertainment Tonight that she was “very thrilled” and hinted that she may campaign for her.

"I’m excited for her, and I’m sure I’ll be hitting the stump trail,” Washington said at the time.

Tony Goldwyn, who plays President Fitzgerald Grant III, also recently campaigned for Clinton in Nevada. He called the former Secretary of State the "ultimate gladiator."

Thanks @HillaryClinton for visiting our alternate universe tonight! You are the ultimate #Gladiator !!! #ImWithHer https://t.co/zF6H4VaRGu— Tony Goldwyn (@tonygoldwyn) February 23, 2016

The Scandal actors are just a handful of the several television stars Clinton has rallied during her campaign. Girls star Lena Dunham, Eva Longoria and America Ferrera have also come out in support for her.
