Dear Vote.com voter:

Unfortunately, Honorable Denise L.. Majette is one of a small number of Sentors and Representatives who refuse to receive e-mail from the people who elect him/her. If you feel strongly about this issue, you can call him/her at 202-224-3121. And please tell your Senator or Representative to get with it and get e-mail!

Does she have a phone number or regular mail address?

Why not just contact her that way.

I don't look at my emails often enough for that to be a reliable way to contact me.

 

[WAGCEVP]

are you an elected official?

 

[Lone_Gunman]

No, but why does that matter. I don't think email is a requirement to hold public office unless the state constitution has been changed.

She probably can't receive info by smoke signal or carrier pigeon either.

 

[monsternav]

True, but smoke signals and carrier pigeons are no longer commonly accepted means of communication. E-mail is, and will continue to be, for the near future. People in business (or politics) these days don't last very long if they won't "Do" e-mail. If you refused to "Do" e-mail where I work, you would be gone in a day or two.

I don't think so. Anyway, send her an email and complain if you want to, I am tired and really just don't care.

A politician should try to be accessible. But think about the kind of emails that probably flood the average politician's inbox every day:

You have 451 unread messages.

Subject: YOU SUCK
Subject: Save $$$ on your next car purchase
Subject: Free Viagra
subject: Refinance your home
Subject: u r stupid
Subject: CIA and the Greys control my mind
Subject: Nigerian business opportunity
Subject: free p0rn 4 you !!!!
Subject: go 2 hell u dick
Subject . . .


Etc. etc.

BEsides, snail mail shows that a person sat down and composed his thoughts more so than email. Sho shoot them off some regular postage.

That legislator needs to get with it.

I sort through my hundreds of porn/penis/general mtumba email daily to get to the one or two that mean anything. She has staffers to do the
sorting anyway.

I don't do snail mail anymore and haven't for almost a year now.
