Mayoral elections

The 2016 Vermont gubernatorial election will take place on November 8, 2016, to elect the Governor of Vermont, concurrently with the 2016 U.S. presidential election, as well as elections to the United States Senate in other states and elections to the United States House of Representatives and various state and local elections.

The primaries will be held on August 9.[1]

Incumbent Democratic Governor Peter Shumlin has decided not to run for re-election to a fourth term in office.[2]

Background

Two-term Democratic Governor Peter Shumlin ran for re-election in 2014 and was widely expected to win easily. However, he only took a plurality of the vote, 46.36%, to Republican Scott Milne's 45.1%, and thus the result was decided by the Vermont General Assembly. The Assembly picked Shumlin by 110 votes to 69. Shumlin announced in June 2015 that he would not run for a fourth term.[3]

Vermont and New Hampshire are the only states in the country whose governors are elected every two years.

Democratic primary

In August, Vermont House Speaker Shap Smith announced that he would be a candidate,[4] but ended his candidacy in November 2015, after his wife was diagnosed with breast cancer.[5] In September, Matt Dunne announced that he would also be a candidate.[6] Also in September, former state legislator Sue Minter, then serving as Vermont's Secretary of Transportation, announced that she would resign her position in order to join the Democratic race.[7] Former Ambassador Peter Galbraith announced his candidacy in March 2016.[8]

Republican primary

In September 2015, Lieutenant Governor Phil Scott entered the race,[36] and 2014 gubernatorial nominee Scott Milne, who had been considering running, endorsed Scott.[37] In October 2015, retired Wall Street executive Bruce Lisman officially announced his "outsider" candidacy.[38]

Scott was endorsed by most active Vermont Republican politicians, and held a strong lead in a February poll.[39][40] Lisman's campaign criticized Scott for being too closely connected to outgoing Democratic governor Peter Shumlin and for "plagiarizing" Lisman's ideas, and linked Scott to the "failures" of the Vermont Health Connect insurance platform and the school redistricting Act 46;[41][42][43] the candidates' campaigns disagreed over whether this constituted "negative campaigning," and Scott's campaign said the attacks were "patently false".[41]
