Klarides Notches 99 Percent House Record

Clerks for the state's House of Representatives have released 2012 voting/attendance records for state legislators.

Rep. Themis Klarides in 2012 continued her strong commitment to the people she represents in 114th General Assembly District covering Derby, Orange and Woodbridge. Klarides, according to recently-released data from the House Clerk’s office, lodged a 99 percent voting record in the House of Representatives during the regular, veto and special sessions.

“I’ve haven’t lost sight of why I go to the Capitol—to be the voice of the people in these three outstanding communities,” said Klarides, who serves as Deputy Republican Leader. “This job is a tremendous responsibility that I take seriously. Every community needs and deserves a strong, thoughtful representative in Hartford. Without that, a town’s voice can be drowned out quickly.”

Klarides serves on the legislature’s committees on Appropriations, Judiciary, Executive and Legislative Nominations, and Legislative Management.
