Hillary Clinton’s [official Twitter](https://twitter.com/HillaryClinton/status/701074843861544960) and [Facebook page](https://www.facebook.com/hillaryclinton/videos/vb.889307941125736/1079313745458487/?type=2&theater) [shared a video](http://time.com/4228654/clinton-campaign-ad-nevada-caucuses/) on Saturday morning of Will Ferrell campaigning for her prior to the Nevada caucuses. The clip showed the 48-year-old actor urging people to, “caucus for Hillary”—and eat chocolate custard—alongside the former secretary of state’s husband Bill Clinton.

Back in September, Ferrell appeared on a list of “[artists and cultural leaders](http://time.com/4230425/britney-spears-hillary-clinton-endorsement/)” endorsing opposing [Democratic nominee Bernie Sanders](http://time.com/4230759/bernie-sanders-hillary-clinton-latino-nevada/).
