An open letter to Rep. John Larsen

 


Rep. John Larsen (D)


Rep. Larsen:  Up until I voted - up until that very minute - I was going to hold my nose, and despite my grave misgivings, I was going to vote for you.  Then I noticed there was a Green Party candidate.  I voted  for her.

Realistically, Mary had no chance of winning.  My vote was purely a protest vote.  Why did I not vote for you?   First, your total lack of interest in voters once you are elected.  I'm not asking for you to agree with me 100 percent.  That's silly.  But what I AM asking is a letter or e-letter.  And no, robocalls don't count.  Geez, a short paragraph or two would be nice.

You want to regain my vote?  Take the time and write your constituents.  Or leave, and allow a  younger person to fill the gap.
