The Massachusetts Democratic Party has launched an online clock accusing US Senator Scott Brown of not holding an open town hall meeting since being elected in January 2010.
The clock is featured on the party’s Internet homepage.
“Since he was sworn in nearly a year and half ago, Scott Brown has not held an open town hall meeting to allow members of the public to ask him questions and express their concerns,” party chairman John Walsh said today in a statement. “Unless they belong to a business group, attend a campaign fund-raiser, or go to a Republican Town Committee meeting, Scott Brown doesn’t seem interested in listening to the concerns of folks in Massachusetts.”
A spokeswoman for the senator did not dispute the contention he had not held a town hall meeting but said he routinely interacts with the public. All told, he has held 220 events across Massachusetts since taking office.
