When GW College Democrats shipped off to Louisville, Ky. to campaign for Senate candidate Alison Grimes, Hatchet staff writer Victoria Sheridan tagged along with the group.

She watched as canvassers knocked on 5,000 doors in one weekend to get out the vote and urge voters to cast their ballots for the Democratic hopeful.

And as 40 members of College Democrats spent the weekend entertaining lively conversations, recovering from a couple of political faux-pas and even chasing an escaped goat, Sheridan captured it all, with photos and writing.

She sat down Monday with “Page Nine” to share her experience as a political reporter.
