She's a democrat, she's my district representative and she does a lousy lousy job.

She never answers letters I have sent to her, and I have sent the same letter to other congresspeople and always, always receive a note in return.

She loves to push the race envelope in everything she does, she's a left leaning social democrat which means she likes to ask for lots of entitlements for her constituents.

I tried to vote her out several times but people just love to vote for this woman, she's a career congressperson which means she has lost touch with her district and is only out for self promotion and when she shows up to vote in congress which is rare, she votes for plenty of social welfare.

I will try once again to vote her out in a couple of years.

Well, you could start with Rep. Waters' website:

And here's a primer on how the U.S. Congress works:

As to how the U.S. Congress differs from state and county lawmaking bodies, you should read up on the concept of "federalism":
