YIKES: Congressman Rob Wittman “Reamed by Furious Voters as [Virtual] Town Hall Derails”

TNR: “If Representative Rob Wittman thought he could hide from his constituents by hosting a virtual town hall, he was sorely mistaken”

Vulnerable Virginia Congressman Rob Wittman continues to make news for all the wrong reasons. 

Days after making headlines for holding a high dollar DC fundraiser hours before the government shutdown, Wittman is back in the press… this time for getting “reamed by furious voters” during  his virtual town hall last night.


According to the press, here’s just a sampling of what Virginians had to say to Congressman Wittman:

“Wow so you have pre-screened all of us who call you daily so you don’t actually have a townhall.”

“You’re a fake. You only answer questions you have pre screened. You are not looking out for all the people who depend on you to stand up for them.”

“You are wasting time reading quotes instead of answering constituents’ questions, this is only an hour.”

“You all are perfectly fine bankrupting Americans over Healthcare and you’re not even trying to negotiate.”

Yikes. 
DCCC Spokesperson Eli Cousin:
“Congressman Rob Wittman is too much of a coward to hold an in person town hall with Virginians, and now he’s even getting reamed out on his phony virtual, pre-screened town hall. After nearly two decades in Congress Wittman has simply lost touch with the people he’s supposed to represent.”
