While I am certainly no stranger to contacting my elected representatives via ACLU, PFAW, et al, the usual response is a form letter and a signature that nearly looks handwritten but not quite. This morning I contacted my state representatives to oppose a proposed amendment to add language that "a marriage between one man and one woman shall be the only legal union that shall be valid or recognized in this state" to the New Hampshire state constitution. And the state reps emailed back personally to tell me that they did oppose amendment. I feel like a 4th grader giddy on a civics lesson (much like the pumpkin lobby).
