Kim Kardashian is getting political.
On Friday, the reality star shared with her 313 million Instagram followers that she is endorsing candidate Rick Caruso for Los Angeles mayor.
"I recently met with Rick Caruso, who is running for mayor in Los Angeles, and I don’t typically endorse anyone in politics," she said in an Instagram story video. "When it comes to my hometown and there’s people that can really make a difference, I think that he really can help with the crime in our city, which is such a big issue."
