| Description | Vermont’s Republican party has a week to field five new candidates for statewide offices after H. Brooke Paige submitted requests on Friday to remove himself from all but one of the seats he won in the primaries last week.
Paige, a perennial candidate for political office, withdrew his candidacy for U.S. House, U.S. Senate, attorney general, treasurer and auditor of accounts. He will run for secretary of state against Jim Condos, the Democratic incumbent.
Vermont GOP chair Deb Billado said on Thursday that the party would meet next week to discuss which candidates to put forward. It has seven days to submit new names to the secretary of state’s office. She declined to provide the names of those being considered. |
