    New members to the Video Game Voters Network received an e-mail this morning letting them know that nearly 20,000 messages were sent to U.S. Senators from concerned gamers in just over a week's time.What were basically sent were form letters, addressed to the appropriate Senators, telling them not to restrict video games, and concluding with the gaming voter's name and address at the end. It looks like the more effective mailing of handwritten letters will be left up to the concerned citizens themselves.Also noted in the e-mail was a survey meant to "help [them] better target and personalize the action alerts [they] send to you." While it's up to you whether you want to share your demographic information and gaming-blog contributions with a political network (even a game-oriented one), it would probably help refine the organization's strategy in who to approach for help and how. The full letter this blogger received follows.See also: Video Game Voters Network: 10,000 strong in first week VGVN's "Contact Congress/Your Senators!" page [with form letter]
