Joe Walsh Runs Counter to the Trend in Holding Town Hall Meetings

The Chicago Tribune reported Sunday that the number of Town Hall Meetings is down.

With MoveOn.org organizing lefties to attend Town Hall Meetings of conservative Congressmen, apparently a number are using the Melissa Bean approach of not holding them.

That’s what the Chicago Tribune’s Washington Bureau Lisa Mascaro reports.

I read the article and it’s pretty obvious that there wasn’t a lot of Illinois-based research.

There was no mention of the ten Town Hall Meetings held by Congressman Joe Walsh of the 8th Congressional District.

No mention of Thursday night’s Woodstock VFW Town Hall meeting, of course, because the article was written before the event was scheduled at 7 PM.

This will be Walsh’s second Town Hall meeting in Woodstock during the summer recess.

180 attended the one at Woodstock North High School the first week of August. If that many come to the VFW, the place will be packed.
