From Vermont Public Radio:
The Vernon-Guilford district is one of a number of open House seats the GOP is hoping to hold on to or even capture from the Democrats. Republicans hold 48 seats now while Democrats hold 94. Independents and Progressives hold the rest.
Dorset Republican Representative Patti Komline, who’s running unopposed, has been helping GOP House candidates around the state.
(Komline) “And I’m hopeful we’re going to pick up seats. I’m hopeful we’ll have 51, 52 seats.”
(Keese) Komline says Republican Senate candidates are also running strong in Franklin, Chittenden and Rutland counties. Democrats currently control the Senate 23-to-seven.
