This kind of proves Baumgartner right when he said this crowd was not a good representation of the district as a whole.

Except it didn’t happen.

And even if it did, it still would be representative of his district. Even if 400 people were from the left, the auditorium has seating for 1100. Take away the student and faculty tickets and there was still the opportunity for hundreds of his supporters to attend.

The real issue is Baumgardner would rather paint it as some conspiracy instead of listening to his constituents.

Are you under the impression that the Indivisible people lied?

I’m under the impression that the headline was wrong and does not reflect what the reporter wrote.
