Rep. Michele Bachmann was busy Thursday talking to her constituents in four different town hall meetings. After a business town hall and a general town hall in Lake Elmo, Rep. Bachmann held another town hall meeting at a local restaurant for 150 people. She then arrived at the Republican Party of Minnesota State Fair booth to hold an impromptu town hall meeting where she answered fair-goers questions about health care reform. On health care reform, she told fair-goers: "I want you to have the freedom to be able to make your own decisions and make your own choices."

In addition to the town hall meetings that she held yesterday, Rep. Bachmann has held four teleforums. In contrast, Al Franken and Amy Klobuchar haven't held any public town hall meetings with their constituents on health care.
Michele Bachmann has held ONE public town hall meeting where she has taken questions from constituents since she has been in office. The other meetings mentioned here were not publicly announced.
It's also interesting that there's no mention of the lack of public town hall meetings from Rep. John Kline or Rep. Erik Paulsen.
