On May 15, leaders of the Vermont Progressive Party met and endorsed a full slate in the party’s primary for the six state statewide offices. They are: Governor Martha Abbott; Lieutenant Governor Marjorie Power; Secretary of State Peter Cooper; Attorney General Charlotte Dennett; Treasurer Don Schramm; Auditor Michael Bayer.

The party nominated a full slate to make it less likely that any non-members might seize one of the party’s nominations with write-in votes in the party’s primary. The party may possibly withdraw some of these candidates after the August 24 primary is over, depending on which Democrats win the primary and what their positions on issues are. See the party’s web page here for more information.
