Description

This promotional video was produced by Town Meeting TV to remind you to watch the Town Meeting TV election forums and results show on November 5th. Hosted by Bobby Lussier.

Election season is around the corner! Vermont's Primary Election is on Tuesday, August 13th, and the General Election is on Tuesday, November 5th. Town Meeting TV has the coverage you need to cast an informed ballot.

The offices to be elected in 2024 include:

  • At the federal level:
    • President and Vice President,
    • One of Vermont's two U.S. Senate seats for a 6-year term
    • Our Congress person in the U.S. House of Representatives for a 2-year term,
  • And in Vermont state government:
    • Governor,
    • Lieutenant Governor,
    • Attorney General,
    • all (30) State Senate seats,
    • all (150) State Representative seats,
  • And many more.

You can only cast a vote for ONE party in the primary on August 13th, but you do not have to be a registered member of that party to vote. Absentee ballots for the statewide primary will be available for request on June 29th. You can request your mail-in ballot online at Vermont's My Voter Page (mvp.vermont.gov), or at your town Clerk's office.

Absentee ballots for the November 5, 2024, general election will be automatically mailed to all active registered voters, no later than October 1, 2024.

Before you vote, you can hear directly from the candidates by watching candidate forums and other election coverage on Town Meeting TV. We will host candidate forums for contested elections in the primary, and then we'll invite all candidates, including uncontested races, running in Burlington, South Burlington, Winooski, Williston, Essex, Essex Junction, and Colchester for the General Election in November. Our live candidate forums give you the opportunity to call in and ask a question directly to the candidates. So check the schedule, tune in, and call in!

Town Meeting TV is also your local source of election results and analysis. We'll have a primary election recap show the day after the primary election, August 14th, and our LIVE election night results show on November 5th shortly after the polls close.

You can watch Town Meeting TV’s election coverage on cable channels: Comcast 1087, Burlington Telecom Channels 17 and 217, and on YouTube at YouTube.com/TownMeetingTV, and find highlights from our coverage on our Facebook and Instagram feeds.
