New Canaan’s Kimberly Norton, a Republican who was elected to the Town Council in 2021, has announced her candidacy for first selectman. We put some questions to Norton, the second GOPer to announce her candidacy for the highest elected office in New Canaan. (Dionna Carlson announced earlier this month.
