Deb Rey Town Hall Meeting

[helmetmike]

I found out yesterday that Deb Rey will be having a Town Hall Meeting on Saturday February 21 at 2:00 pm at the Lexington Park Library. Deb sits on the House Judiciary Committee and there are a bunch of gun bills in the pipe this year.

I attended both of these events, although Deb is not "my" delegate.

It was very discouraging to hear Steve use the term "I" as often as he did. He spent very little time talking about the issues and a great deal of time talking about what a great job he has done building significant relationships in only 4 weeks. For me it was, I would estimate that there were about 30-35 folks attending.

Deb was nervous and you could tell, but still, she carried herself well and did a good job actually focusing on questions that were asked. Where she did not have an answer, she said so rather that try to make up some BS line. Her staff took notes and promised to get back to folks on questions that went unanswered. What surprised me, a lot, is that she plans to hold these town hall meetings about every two weeks. Time will tell whether or not there will be the demand / turn out to support that idea, but good on her for committing to it. Hopefully our other two SOMD delegates will join in. I estimate that there were 35-40 people (including at least 2 reporters) at Deb's meeting.
