It was great to see many of you at our recent series of Early Childhood Candidate Forums. Across Vermont, House and Senate candidates spoke about where they stand on issues that are important to families and communities, including economic security, housing, early childhood workforce shortages, and access to prekindergarten programs.
All candidates on the ballot for House and Senate races were invited to the forums.
Many of the forums were recorded. If you weren’t able to attend your local forum, you can watch here:
- St. Johnsbury, Sept. 30
- Bennington, Sept. 30
- Burlington, Oct. 1
- Bellows Falls, Oct. 1
- Rutland, Oct. 5
- Newport, Oct. 7
- Essex, Oct. 8
- Middlebury, Oct. 13
- St. Albans, Oct. 15
- Brattleboro, Oct. 21
Ballots for the Nov. 3 general election were mailed to all active registered Vermont voters by October 1. Early ballots must be received at your town clerk’s office by close of business on Nov. 2. (If you’re mailing your ballot, it is recommended that you allow a week for delivery, so this deadline has now passed.) If you decide to vote in person on Nov. 3, bring your ballot with you to your polling location. Vermont voters can find more information at vote.vermont.gov.
