5. Yes it does
Of course there are issues you know they are not going to change their opinions on BUT a congressman, instructiing a group, told us that they way it works is that each letter is considered X number of constiuents. A phone call reperesents Y number, but less than a letter. I don't know about e-mail but probably even less than a phone call.
Each letter representing a certain opinion is logged, for and against etc. each day.
That is why it really doesn't do much good to write a long letter - it will really be reduced to a pro or con position.
