Watch: Would "The Good Wife" Stars Vote for Peter Florrick?

There's another presidential candidate joining the already crowded field: The Good Wife's Peter Florrick. OK, so he's a fictional presidential candidate, but still.

In the world of The Good Wife, Chris Noth's character is running for president with the help of Ruth Eastman (Margo Martindale) and Alicia (Julianna Margulies) is along for the ride with Eli Gold (Alan Cumming) by her side. But Eli is just there to undercut Ruth and potentially destroy Peter. Whatever works best for him, clearly. Peter's running to be Hillary Clinton's vice president, he knows he can never win the presidential election, but he wants on the center stage. So, would The Good Wife stars vote for Peter Florrick? Click play on the video above to find out—their answers may surprise you.

Clinton is an admitted fan of the CBS drama—she once told series star Margulies she was a fan, but the Emmy winner thought the former secretary of state was just being polite. That all changed when Clinton released emails from her time in office and one in particular revealed she wanted to know when The Good Wife and Parks and Recreation aired.

"The only good thing about those emails coming out—in my mind 'cause I can't bear any of it—is that she asked when The Good Wife was on," Margulies said with a laugh. "I mean, I'm thrilled. She's true to her word."

So how about a cameo from the candidate?

"That's a great question," Margulies told us. "She never would, but the door is always open."

The Good Wife airs Sundays, 9 p.m. on CBS, but at 9:30 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 11.
