Many undecided voters are faced with a tough choice between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. Count Hayden Panettiere among them.

The Heroes cutie said this week that she was “not yet prepared to say” which of the Democratic presidential hopefuls she supports.

“I had a conversation with Barack Obama,” the 18-year-old girlfriend of Milo Ventimiglia said. “I’m waiting to hear from Hillary Clinton.”

The big issue for the actress? Whales.

A source tells celebrity news sites that when Hayden attended a February 1 dinner with former First Daughter Chelsea Clinton, and “Hayden Panettiere made it clear to Chelsea she’ll vote for whoever will help save the whales.”

THG NOTE: If she already had a conversation with Obama, but is waiting on Hillary, does that mean Barack does not want to save the whales?

THG NOTE II: Both California and New York (Hayden’s home state) held primaries February 5, so she may be out of luck until November!

THG NOTE III: Know who probably doesn’t care about whales, but wants to service Hillary in the Oval Office? Holly Wellin!
