I HATE MY REPRESENTATIVE!

I hated the last one too but she got gerrymandered out. This is what mine does, and it was the same for the last one too. They don't have public townhall meetings AT ALL. Instead he goes "Nana-nana boo-boo" and has them in private settings. Last time he went to Nicor's corprete headquarters. Obviously no one but Nicor employees could join in. The one that got gerrymandered out went to nursing homes or age restricted communities where only the residents could attend.

Yeah, I'm totally represented here. When you email them, they also don't respond. His staff is only there in the day, so when someone gets off work, there's really no one to call.

What's there to really do besides harassing them?
