An overwhelming majority of West Virginia voters supported President Donald Trump and Republican representatives Sens. Shelley Moore Capito and Jim Justice, and Reps. Riley Moore and Carol Miller in the last election.

But in response to a Mountain State Spotlight request for readers to tell us about their experiences reaching out to those representatives, we heard from more than 100 people who said they mostly weren’t happy with the responses they got.

They don’t need real voters anymore. They will buy votes, gerrymander and mediabomb until they get the desired result. Why should they return the calls of those plebs?
