Episode Details

Vermont’s primary election day is make-or-break for key statewide races—winning here locks in November victories. Democrats battle for governor, lieutenant governor, and auditor spots, while Republicans vie for congressional seats. Most legislative races are already decided, but a handful of county positions like sheriff and state’s attorney are heating up. Absentee ballots must now be dropped off or delivered in person; polls are open 7 AM to 7 PM. With turnout hovering around 15% this year—down from 34% in 2020—voters remain largely disengaged, citing lack of competitive races and vacation schedules. Still, the primary remains the decisive moment for many offices, giving voters a direct say—even if few show up.
