Congratulations! You made it through Election Day. The next step is getting to know your representatives.
On Tuesday we hired and fired, but that doesn’t mean your work is finished. It is up to you and me to make sure that our representatives live up to the promises made on the campaign trail. Take a minute to make sure you know how to get in contact with your legislators.

You may notice that the incumbent information is still up. Newly elected officials won’t begin service until January 2011.
