But we don’t know yet who’s getting what. That’s where you come in.Over at California Watch reporter Chase Davis published the call-list for California, and is asking his readers to report in to him. Wisconsin representatives and senators will be dialed by folks at the Wisconsin Center for Investigative Reporting. The New England Center for Investigative Reporting has almost made it through Massachusetts, thanks to the hard work of Lyle Moran and Sydney Lupkin. They’re still looking for an answer from Senator-elect Scott Brown.
