Constituents having trouble reaching Roland Burris

Apparently, AP reports, it's easier for Sen. Roland Burris (D-Blagojevich) to author a media stunt--such as his first attempt to claim his Senate seat--than to run his Washington office.

Wayne Lovern of Chatham said he called Burris' office in Washington five times on Tuesday and got nothing but busy signals. He said he resorted to sending an e-mail to Sen. Dick Durbin’s office and asking his staff to walk it over to Burris' office.

Bill Franklin of Springfield wanted to tell Burris how he should vote on the economic stimulus package but couldn't get through to anyone. Franklin said he’s resorted to Googling Burris to find some way to contact the senator but with no luck.
