Baram Receives Unanimous Support
Baram was unanimously nominated to continue his representation of 15th District constituents.

David Baram recently received unanimous support of Windsor and Bloomfield democrats to continue representing the 15th Assembly District in the state capitol.
Baram's work in Hartford was praised by Bloomfield Democratic Town Committee Treasurer Byron Lester, who said Baram, who was sworn into office during a 2009 special election, as being "actively involved in both Bloomfield and Windsor.
Lester cited Baram's work in securing $.5 million for Bloomfield's 4-H camp, $250,000 to replace Bloomfield Town Hall's windows, and his current work to secure $150,000 for the Windsor Art Center.
