Dole gave scant reply
I would like to second Sandy Bundgaard’s letter (May 21) regarding Sen. Dole’s poor constituent service. I, too, have e-mailed concerns a number of times to both Sen. Dole and Sen. Burr. I receive a timely — and often detailed — response from Sen. Burr that is specific to the issue I raised. I have received only two letters from Sen. Dole, both of which were generic “thanks for your input” form letters.
In contrast, Kay Hagan and Maggie Jeffus both send me weekly e-mail updates on what’s happening in the N.C. General Assembly. I am confident that Kay Hagan’s constituent service will continue when she represents North Carolina in the U.S. Senate.
Please, let us elect a senator who actually cares about the people of North Carolina!

Hey Libby, for a more accurate update on the Generl Assembly just look at your tax burden, our 30 cent per gallon gas tax, and the Central Prison, new inmate roster.
Perhaps Dole and Burr simply choose not to answer stupid questions!

Libby:
My experience in contacting our representatives has been the same as yours. Ms. Dole send form-letter position papers which don't address my concerns.
I would add Rep. Coble's name to the role of those who respond inappropriately to constituent letters.
Thanks for pointing this out.

Maybe Dole sends more personalized responses to folks back in Kansas, you know, where she lives with her husband.

Had me worried the NR had been about three days without printing this letter for the 1000th time. I guess Allen does not want to reprint all the letters about Pukeloski commone sense gas plan. I have wrote Miller 4 times and have not got a reply, I written two letters to the NR, none have been printed. Allen you just lost a customer, you are so bias it is friggin unreal.
