Rep. Kokoruda Qualifies for Campaign Grant

Legislator's campaign gains momentum in Madison and Durham as she qualifies for Citizen's Election Program.

Wednesday at a special meeting, the State Elections Enforcement Commission approved State Rep. Noreen Kokoruda’s (R-101) application for a public grant from the Citizen’s Election Program for the 101st General Assembly District election.

The Citizen’s Elections Program required Rep. Kokoruda to raise $5,000 in small contributions and have at least 150 donors that reside in Madison or Durham. The approval of the application means the Kokoruda campaign will receive a grant of $26,850.

“As I speak with voters and listen to their concerns, it’s clear that our state’s current policies are not working for Connecticut families,” said Rep. Kokoruda. “As my campaign progresses, I look forward to connecting with folks and demonstrating how my common sense approach will help Madison and Durham remain communities of opportunity.”
