Some Republican Senators are looking at their constituencies

[MineralMan]

with regard to the vote to convict or not convict. Some have already decided that a vote to convict Trump will not hurt their reelection chances. Others are frantically counting their votes in their own states, trying to see what their constituents are thinking. That's their primary concern, really. Can I get reelected? Nothing else really matters to them.

That's why it's important to communicate with your Senators right now if they are Republicans. Mine are both Democrats, and I know their intentions. Nevertheless, I have emailed both of them. It is your Republican Senators who will decide whether to convict or not. They're tallying emails, phone calls, and other communications right now.

Tell them what you want them to do. Trust me - They're listening right now. Some of them, anyhow.

But if someone in their offices reads the emails my voice will be heard.

2. it is an echo chamber. trump tells the constituencies what to think in the R areas.

the issue are those Rs who are still claiming the election was stolen.

3. Oh so spot on.

Evidence now being the latest spew from Moscow Mitch. You just know they are watching their daily polling back home and that is all they care about.

Amazing how they,the GOP,went from the Party of Police support to,one of,oh well,only five Guys died.

4. Too many people think there is no point in contacting their Republican

Senators. In some cases, that is true. Marco Rubio, for example, would never vote to convict. However, he is just one Senator. Other Republican Senators are not in his position. Some need to be concerned about the next election. Each of those is a candidate for communications from their home state. Only people who vote in their state matter to them, though, so bombarding them will emails from other states will have no impact.

It takes just a few minutes to send an email to your own Senators. I can't imagine not doing so at this time.

14. For us,our

Delegation is all but one Democrats. Used to ding Hatch and other Utah Rethugs with our old Utah E-mail Address. Usually received the usual Party Line response within a day or so.

5. Called and emailed both Cruz and Cornyn. Cornyn may have a conscience. Cruz is irredeemable.

6. Thank you!

12. Their DC and local numbers have been on my desk for four+ years. Used frequently.

Occasionally, I get the opportunity to talk with one of their staff members when I call a local office. Not today.

8. Thank you!

Blunt and Quawley

Sigh

[MineralMan]

10. Thank you!

11. Already did: twice. And thanked him for the vote to try, as well. It all gets tallied.

That's what interns are for.

13. Thank you!

15. My Republican Senator

Patrick Toomey has announced that he is not running for re-election. (Hopefully John Fetterman will take his place.)
I think he is siding with the sane caucus of his Party, and he will vote to convict for the sole reason of obtaining a lucrative position in a mainline Republican organization upon retirement. I've always thought his fealty was to money.

16. Toomey suddenly discovered a conscience

Better late than never. Now that he’s not running he’s actually done a few good things.

[MineralMan]

19. Please do contact him.

[BlueSpot]

18. Done

I doubt it will help but done.

[MineralMan]

20. Thank you!

22. Wrote Toomey - my rethug Senator.

I have written everyday this week. I think he will vote his conscience.

For good measure I emailed Sen Bob Casey too. Never hurts to show that you support your Democratic Senators - the praise emails go a long way to negate the hate mail they get from the insurrectionists.
