BURLINGTON, Vt. (WCAX) -Vermont voters head to the polls Tuesday to see who will face Gov. “It means investing in services to stop folks from re-offending and allowing them to reintegrate into the community which saves so much money and starts bending these painful trends we’re all experiencing here in Vermont,” Richards said. The Democrats also have a race to unseat Republican Lt. Gov. If you still have an absentee ballot, you must bring it with you to the polls today in order to vote. All Vermont polls will be open until 7 p.m.
