Jul 2021

Lt Governor Molly Gray
Attorney General TJ Donovan
President Pro Tempore of the VT Senate Becca Balint
Speaker of the VT House of Representative Jill Krowinski

Can former Lt. Governor David Zuckerman who lost the 2020 VT Governor's Election to Phil Scott by a 40 something % margin win? Winning a US Senate Election in VT for a Democrat is easier than Winning a Governor's Election in VT against a strong candidate like Phil Scott.

VT never had a female US Senator so Gray, Balint, or Krowinski are the likely candidates.
