How do I spin a political Internship for finance interviews???

I am a rising sophomore at an Ivy. I started applying for internships too late in the year and was not able to get a finance internship for the summer. However, I had worked on a political campaign for a large race in high school and through a connection, was able to get another job for the summer on another campaign. I have worked as an organizer for the race and have been able to manage a team of volunteers for the office. However, I am wondering how I could best present it on my resume and how I could spin it in interviews.
