Shouldn't people in the DMV be smarter than that?[/quote]

Interesting comment.

Something that hasn’t gotten a lot of press (predictably) is that Democrats in vulnerable districts are not having town hall events.

[quote]From Montana to West Virginia, the nation's most vulnerable Senate Democrats are avoiding town hall meetings as their Republican counterparts get pummeled by an energized electorate frustrated with President Donald Trump's early agenda.

Some Democrats prefer to connect with constituents over the telephone or using social media. Others are meeting voters in controlled environments with limited opportunities to ask questions. But few of the 10 Democratic senators facing re-election next year in states carried by Trump have scheduled in-person town hall meetings during this week's congressional recess.[/quote]
