Vermont Sheriff Race Sparks Debate | Burlington News
Description
In Vermont’s Chittenden County, a bizarre Democratic sheriff’s race pits veteran cop Dan Gamelin—whose department now rakes in $500K from private contracts—against musician Kevin Bloom, who wants to turn the office into a community safety net. Gamelin defends his business-as-usual approach, while Bloom pushes for eviction prevention and taxpayer accountability. Both agree Vermont needs oversight, but disagree on who should lead the office—and whether sheriffs should even be cops at all.
