US Rep. Katherine Harris had planned a quick town meeting at a small town Kiwanis Hall. But when hundreds of people showed up with detailed questions, her tight schedule didn't allow detailed answers, and a frustrated crowd turned angry, booing the congresswoman several times.
The crowd's mood already was testy before the meeting began. Security guards and Harris' staff confiscated any written material people tried to bring into the hall.
The confiscated literature included analysis of the Medicare prescription bills passed in the House and Senate in June as well as a chart showing Harris' voting record since she began her term in January.
[Remember Harris, former Florida Secretary of State.
In 2002 Harris wanted a lawsuit against her thrown out, but a judge decided to let the case go trial. Five groups filed suit against Harris, as the state election chief, and the county elections supervisor. The suit charges that black voters were disenfranchised during the 2000 presidential election.]
