Vermont's 2026 Election Deep Dive | Montpelier News

Vermont’s 2026 election is shaping up as a major political showdown—vote on November 3rd for six statewide offices and 180 state legislators, plus county races in a separate cycle. State lawmakers craft laws, manage the budget, and oversee the governor’s performance, while the governor leads the executive branch with veto power and appoints key officials. The lieutenant governor presides over the Senate, the attorney general handles major legal cases, the treasurer manages state finances, and the secretary of state runs elections and business registrations. The auditor ensures taxpayer money is spent wisely, sheriffs lead local law enforcement, and state’s attorneys prosecute crimes. County elections also include probate judges, assistant judges, and high bailiffs—each playing vital roles in keeping Vermont’s government running smoothly.
