Two more town halls from Delgado

Rep. Antonio Delgado, who represents New York's 19th Congressional District, will hold his 10th and 11th town hall meetings March 9 and March 10, in Schoharie County, and Broome County. “A core responsibility of mine as a congressman is engaging with folks and hearing what’s most important to them, whether they agree with me or not. And that’s exactly what town halls allow me to do,” Delgado said in a press release. “From the very start of my term, the town halls have been invaluable in terms of learning how I can best serve and meet the needs of the communities here at home.” Former Rep. John Faso did not hold any traditional town hall meetings, holding just one public forum with special rules about attendance and questions. Delgado's staff has also created live webstreams for each of his previous town halls, although at meetings in Germantown and Tannersville, there was not enough broadband service to stream the events without many interruptions. WGXC has broadcast each of Delgado's town hall meetings.
