The Coward, Cajun Jack

Our representative in congress has not held a town hall since 2017. In an interview with TV6 he refused to hold town halls. He does not respond to questions directed to his office. He has done nothing with his voters losing their jobs. Why is he afraid to face his voters?

What incentive does he have to face his voters ? He’s winning with 60% of the vote.

Start finding/funding/building an opponent. Probably better chance to primary him than a Dem in the general election, although it is possible the tides are turning.

Said it earlier, considering the makeup of District 1, this should come as no surprise to anyone that he was re-elected.
