re: #361 Anymouse

Folk around the Internet are bashing Republicans holding telephonic town halls over in-person town halls (claiming they are cowards).

I don’t know about more populous states, but here, where outside Omaha, Lincoln, and South Sioux City, the state’s population density is very low (but the majority of the state lives in the rural areas not the cities). Telephonic town halls make sense to gather together the voters.

That said, I am signed up for both my senators’ and my representative’s telephonic town halls, and it is amazing how fast I get cut off after I phone in. It’s almost as if they check names or something against the voter roles, see Democrat, and cut the call off.

even before you ask anything?
