Rep. Pollet cancels district ‘Traveling Town Hall’ meeting Saturday

Democratic 46th District State Rep. Gerry Pollet has canceled his district ‘Traveling Town Hall" meeting for Saturday.

Pollet has been holding weekly events in Lake Forest Park, Kenmore and northeast Seattle.

He said Friday that legislative business would keep him in Olympia Saturday.

Pollet said that he would continue holding the meetings around the district after the current session ends, including at least one at the Lake Forest Park Town Center.

Pollet said that when he held a meeting in Lake Forest Park early in the session he met about 20 constituents who, he said, asked good questions.

Pollet said that, when he, Democratic 46th District State Rep. Jessyn Farrell and State Sen. David Frocht held a telephone town hall meeting Feb. 25, they got about 900 listeners but ran out of time before getting to all of their questions.
