Nicholas R. Gambini

Gambini was motivated to run because of the �presidential election as a whole� and in particular the issue of voter purges that removed thousands of voters from registered rolls in Brooklyn in April. �That made me want to get more involved to fix the perceived corruption in government,� Gambini said. �It gives me a good opportunity to make positive change as a whole and my district.� If elected, Gambini said he would commit to tackling corruption, reducing taxes for middle-class families and making Long Island more affordable for residents.

Gambini, 22, of Holbrook, is running on the Democratic line. He graduated with a bachelor�s degree from Kutztown University. He works as a driver for a Sayville pizzeria. This is his first time running for office.
