A new VPR - Vermont PBS Poll is out today, with numbers on who's leading in various statewide races before the midterms and how Vermonters of different political persuasions feel about various issues, from affordability to racism.

The poll was conducted by Braun Research under the direction of Rich Clark, a professor of political science at Castleton University and the former director of the Castleton Polling Institute. Clark spoke with VPR about the results.

The VPR - Vermont PBS Poll asked hundreds of Vermonters questions to learn where they stand on key issues and how they feel about candidates for statewide office. Explore the full results of the October 2018 poll here.
