Post-primary nominations swell number of candidates for statewide office, Legislature
By Guy Page
Due to several post-primary nominations by town, county, and state committees, the number of Republicans on the November 8 general election ballot now totals 152.
The Vermont GOP has a candidate for every statewide office: Governor (Phil Scott), Lt. Governor (Joe Benning), Attorney General (Michael Tagliava, Corinth), Secretary of State (Brooke Paige), Auditor of Accounts (Rick Morton, Brattleboro) and Treasurer (Brooke Paige). It also has Senate candidates running in every county, except Bennington. One of the three senate districts in newly redistricted Chittenden County lacks a Republican.
In the Vermont House, 89 candidates are listed as either Republican only (74) or Republican first with another party affiliation second. There are 150 seats in the House of Representatives.
For a listing of all candidates of all parties appearing on the November 8 ballot, see below. (Source: Vermont Secretary of State.)

Is it fair to say a Prog/Dem is really a Progressive that is signed on to both parties? What about a Dem/Rep or Rep/Dem? I assume they are interchangeable labels. What does that label mean? Hope someone can help guide my understanding. I’m probably not alone wondering this.
On the basic level, it means that each/both of those parties nominated the individual as its candidate in the primary — or, if there was an empty seat after the primary — was nominated as its candidate by the town’s party committee. What you cannot tell from the label on the ballot is whether the nomination was solicited or unsolicited, and/or whether it came via a primary election vote or a town party nomination. You would have to ask the candidate. In my case, for example, I have been a long-time moderate Republican, and I filed to run for the Republican nomination. My district-mate, Ken Goslant, and I were uncontested in the primary for the two-seat district, and both received the Republican nomination. No one filed a petition for the Democratic primary, but Laura Hill-Eubanks ran a write-in campaign and won a seat via write-in votes. I did not solicit any write-in votes, but 32 people who voted a Democratic ballot wrote my name in. If there are no other candidates for a seat, a House nomination only requires 25 votes, so I received the Democratic nomination for the second seat, and thus have a Rep/Dem after my name. The order in which the label falls usually indicates the party that the person considers their main affiliation, while the second label indicates the party that also nominated them.
Thank you Anne for that concise explanation……I also wondered! as many of my teachers use to say……..ask your question, no matter how silly, or stupid you may think it is, because…there are others with the same question who will not ask…
