VPR Goes to Iowa

January 2, 2012 No Comments

Matthew Taylor, Hannah Jarmolowski, Britt Johnson, Mark Cherry, and Nick Vance spent their New Year’s Eve in Des Moines, IA, following the 2012 Iowa Caucuses. While there, we met up with some Vanderbilt Alums working for different campaigns and news media. Here are some highlights from our trip so far:


Former VPR Writer, Jillian Hughes, interviews members of the Iowa Minutemen. Romney & Co. are the “devil.”


Governor Romney in Atlantic, IA


The Cast of Morning Joe (minus Vandy Alum Willie Geist) at an event near the Iowa State Capitol
