At the 4th Congressional District debate between Rep. Mia Love and Mayor Ben McAdams, McAdams correctly took Love to task about her lack of availability to constituents, noting that Love has gone her entire term without holding a single public town hall.
Love’s audacious reply, claiming to have held 85 town halls over the past year, is nothing more than a flat, outright lie. She has done nothing of the sort.
She counts private business events as town halls, but I do not. She even counts small, private gatherings at the home of Councilwoman Aimee Winder Newton as “town halls,” but I do not.
