Mr. Beat: I called every U.S. Senator in the country. Here were the responses I got.

 

[VIDEO] Mr. Beat in two livestreams contacted all 50 U.S. Senators and the President of the Senate who is also Vice President Kamala Harris. He never talked to a Senator got a video message from one, got more or less chain messages from at least a couple. Got one response lecturing him on instant runoff voting. However not even a quarter of all U.S. Senators responded to him.

Some staffers were uncomfortable with being recorded. Some have heard of Mr. Beat. Others seemed underwhelmed and not very interested in what Mr. Beat was calling about. A few stated that they're only recording comments for constituents from their respective states.

And as for that last statement I wonder how they do treat their own constituents. Mr. Beat could conclude that the U.S. Senate offices are probably more into the opinions of special interests and lobbyists than the voter. 

Has anyone out there contacted their elected representatives?

Livestream Pt. 2: Mr. Beat calls every U.S. Senator

 

[VIDEO] I believe this started at 9:00 AM this morning and as I write this at 10:32 AM he's still going. So far he's contacted U.S. Senators from Montana and I as write this Mr. Beat contacted New York Democrat U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand. Sorry go for part one if you want to see him contact Illinois' U.S. Senators.

This should be a fun exercise as far as contacting your elected representatives.
