[StBernard] Melancon criticized for lack of meetings

[Westley Annis]

While Melancon held regular town hall meetings in the past, only telephone
town-hall meetings have been offered lately, where voters have to dial in to
participate.

The strategy makes Melancon look like an incumbent, when he's actually the
challenger, said Joshua Stockley of Thibodaux, a political-science professor
at the University of Louisiana at Monroe who has extensive knowledge of the
district.

	Well actually, he's both since he's the incumbent of the 3rd
district and the senate challenger.
