"Alethia," or "Karen"--Much of the job of a US Senator is listening to constituents and learning about the issues that concern them. In modern times, constituents often use social media to communicate with their Senators.  As a concerned candidate, I read Alaskans' messages and the comments on social media to learn about voters' concerns. A majority of Alaskans use social media these days to communicate.  

As a side note . . . I also get regularly alerted by my supporters to the false information that you post about me, so that I can correct it where necessary.
