Vermont’s primary elections are on Tuesday, August 13. Voters will voice their opinions on who they want to move on to the November election. On ballots across the state this year are state legislature seats, lieutenant governor candidates and two Democrats vying to challenge Governor Phil Scott. VT Digger’s statehouse bureau chief Sarah Mearhoff, and WCAX's politics reporter Calvin Cutler explain this year's primary cycle, dive into the most watched races, and talk about how the races compare to 2022's election cycle.
Polls close at 7 PM. You can check the Secretary of State's website, or call your town or city clerk to find where you can vote, check your registration status or your voter mailing address. Vermont Public also hosted a series of primary debates which you can watch here.
