“We could hardly nominate a more qualified candidate!” she said.

The chairman of the Newtown DTC, Eric Paradis, was equally excited about Nick’s candidacy. “With his long experience and deep concern for our local issues, Nick Kapoor can be counted on to get them a fair hearing once he arrives in the State Legislature. He will be exactly the kind of representative that the 112th District has needed for far too long.”

“I am delighted for this opportunity to gain the trust of the voters in the 112th district to expand my involvement in Connecticut government,” Kapoor said, “and I promise to provide a 'seat at the table; and a loud voice for the local concerns of the 112th District once I am elected to Hartford.”
