Schwartz Teletown Hall Meeting

Congresswoman Allyson Schwartz held a townhall meeting this evening. It differed from her previous teletownhall meetings in that instead of constituents having to call in, this time the phone system called them and people merely had to stay on the line. Though I am told that the calls were not all timed right and some people came in late. This new system also allowed her to ask listeners to voice their opinion via touchtone (If you thing we should drill in ANWR press one, if you don't press two) and give her immediate feedback. Just under 7,000 (yes, that is seven thousand) people listened in on at least part of the call.
