Has DU ever considered doing an AMA with our reps?

5. Not really

I could see this working in California or Texas - but NJ?

Our Congressional Candidate can drive the width of our district (gerrymandered so 'crazy') in under 1/2 an hour.

It makes more sense to do what he's doing the next few weeks - meet in greets in high points, small town halls, small meetings, etc. etc.

Look at the NJ Map - it's not hard to reach the constituents. Also - Corey Booker does really great live q and a's on Facebook.

My greatest fear would be say - Peter Jacob in 2018 - gets slammed with a lot of questions of about coal miners.

His working poor in our district are not coal miners - they are poor black and Hispanic women - and their needs from their Congressman are vastly different (layers of racism in Horse Country NJ, safety of their children based on the color of their skin, etc. etc.)

I would resent having a question that mattered go unanswered.
