Sarita Bhandarkar is running to represent the 99th Assembly District, seeking the seat seat formerly held by James Skoufis.
Sarita, as she prefers to be known, is “running for Assembly because residents of the Hudson Valley deserve a real advocate in Albany.

Sarita is an attorney and a small business owner with an office on Main Street. Her specialty is elder law, giving her a unique perspective on issues connected with aging including Medicare and Medicaid. As a first generation American Sarita has “been standing up for what's right all my life; now, I'm ready to stand up where it matters most.”
