Campaign themes
2014
Sapareto's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[2]
Taxes
- Excerpt: "I will always stand up for New Hampshire taxpayers. The increase in the Gas Tax is just the most recent example of the New Hampshire legislature increasing costs for the average taxpayer unnecessarily. That is why, as your State Senator, I would fight tirelessly against tax increases, particularly on our property, and always stand against a sales or income tax. I'll fight against anyone who tries to raise your taxes, whether they're Democrats or Republicans."
Health Care
- Excerpt: "I oppose Obamacare and will do everything I can to improve access to affordable health care for my constituents, even if that means opposing implementation of the Obamacare takeover."
Individual Liberties
- Excerpt: "Individual liberties are the foundation of our civil society. Whether the issue is gun ownership, freedom of expression, burdensome taxes, or the right of each individual to make their own choices about healthcare, I will fight to protect New Hampshire citizens' right to Live Free."
Gaming
- Excerpt: "The opportunity gaming expansion presents to New Hampshire and its residents must not be ignored. The tax revenue generated from the sites themselves, and the income of thousands of new employees, will allow us to lower business taxes and create new jobs. I will work to make sure that the benefits from the new casinos will come to our district."
Small Business
- Excerpt: "As your State Senator, I will reduce the tax burden on small businesses and offset the gas tax increase that was recently imposed on our state. I promise to continue to vote for the people of the 19th district and will never vote to increase taxes, no matter the party lines."

Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
