Does Casey's office answer emails? [View All]

[Red Knight]

I sent Casey an email before the funding vote urging him not to fund the war. I explained that I was a supporter and Gulf War vet who made calls for him through my union during the campaign.

No response.

Fine. He votes to fund the war.

I sent him another email expressing my dissappointment and asking for his reasoning. I noted that I receive emails from other senators from other states(granted--form emails that explain their positions) and that it would be nice for him to keep his supporters informed, expecially on votes they disagree with. I even mentioned that it felt sometimes as though the Democrats took their base for granted while the Republicans never did.

You would think that he'd have something ready to go, explaining the vote.

Nothing.

Oh--not entirely true; there was a one sentence reply saying that my email was received and would be reviewed by a staffer. Nothing after that.

Does Casey just not give a crap? Even if he wants to be Governor, he was elected and has some reponsibility to respond to the voters who put him there.

If this is the best we can do we have serious problems. Hey--it's early. But I hope that he gets his act together and becomes a real representative of the people who made his victory possible.

Right now, I'm just not sure he cares, or he has a very incompetant group of staffers. Either way, it's not good.
