Tracking Vermont’s 2025 election day results

BARRE, Vt. (WCAX) – Voters hit the polls across the country on Tuesday, weighing in on everything from high-stakes political races to municipal funding.

In Vermont, towns looked to their residents to approve a myriad of projects.

Across the state, Vermont voters considered ballot items pertaining to flood mitigation, infrastructure projects, and a new career center.

After a full workday and an evening of volunteering at the Barre Community Justice Center, Becky Wigg took to the polls.

“I moved here five years ago during the pandemic and really found my community,” said Wigg.

She voted yes to Barre’s $2.4 million flood-resilient housing project and the $3.3 million new public works building, which will be built out of the flood plain.

“I voted yes for the bonds because I believe in Barre. I want to live in a thriving community where everyone has a safe place to live, an affordable place to live, and we have the public services and resources that we need,” said Wigg.

Barre’s unofficial election results show both ballot items were approved.

“Really transformational projects, these are generational things that we’ve been trying to solve, and I’m very, very pleased that the voters showed their confidence in these projects and approved them,” said Barre City Manager Nicolas Storellicastro.

The Hinesburg Record reports that bond issues of repairing two flood-damaged bridges and installing a new well were approved.

Brighton approved their $9.6 million bond to upgrade the town’s wastewater system. Cabot approved spending a quarter million dollars on flood mitigation.

Plainfield’s request to borrow $600,000 as part of a $9 million project to build 40 new homes failed.

And so did Berlin’s bond to form a four-season rec center, as reported by the Times Argus.

Also on central Vermonters’ ballots was the option to build a $149 million new technical education center.

Central Vermont will need to pool results from different towns to find out if the career center will happen. They expect the results on that to come out on Thursday.
