It is a call to action to get residents to let their representatives do the resident's bidding. The representatives should in no way act contrary to or "despite" residents" input.

I have sent an email to the dot com new suggesting they could perform a service to us by advising how to contact the respective representatives in TV as well as list their contact information.
You are assuming that "the residents" of TV as a whole, have contributed to the poll. IMHO very few residents are in the least bit interested in the striping and just want to go on their merry way having fun, fun, fun and let someone else decide what is right for TV. For instance, I know of no one in my circle, other than me, who has the slightest interest in this chat room, and as for the online newspaper, I think even less people care or know about that. I think you are working on the assumption that this chat line and the dot.com newspaper are major players in TV and I think that is far from the truth.

I will add, that the time to worry about your representatives is before they get elected and not after the fact! How many people really have any interest in who is running for election in their particular Village. I think it comes down to the same ol' same ol' - let someone else do it!
