Why I’m Running

I’m Julian Kovacs, and I’m running for Colonie Town Board as the Democratic Party and Colonie Forward Party candidate.

I’m 24, born and raised in Colonie, and I’m ready to bring a younger, community-focused voice to Town Hall. Whether you grew up in Colonie or just moved here, you deserve leadership that listens and puts people first.

This isn’t about politics as usual; it is about real issues: safe roads, strong neighborhoods, support for families and small businesses, and a future where young people can stay and thrive.

It’s about all of us working together to move Colonie forward.

So please knock on doors with me, talk to your neighbors, and if you can, chip in to help us grow this movement.
Together, we can build something better.
