One of the stars of ABC's hit show, "Scandal," was in Las Vegas Sunday campaigning for Hillary Clinton.

Tony Goldwyn, who plays President Fitzgerald Grant on the show, was at an event for the Democratic presidential candidate at state Sen. Kelvin Atkinson's house in North Las Vegas.

Goldwyn has been throwing his support behind Clinton throughout the state, appearing at the University of Nevada Reno Saturday.

He encouraged people to get involved in politics.

"If you feel passionate about a candidate, then get out and talk to your friends and your colleagues and go canvass and get involved," Goldwyn said. "You know what, it's fun and it's inspiring and it's exhilirating."
