NY-6 primary: Meng’s recent telephone town hall with constituents draws criticism from Park supporters over lack of personal connection

The latest chapter in the 6th Congressional District Democratic primary battle between incumbent Grace Meng and challenger Chuck Park centers around a telephone town hall meeting that the Congress member held last month.

While the Meng camp insisted that the May 19 phone-in event was comprehensive and transparent, supporters of Park criticized the choice of venue, saying she should have instead held an in-person event to address their questions.
