VERMONTERS FOR

CANDIDATE  

Below is a list of the candidates VC U endorses in the November 7 election. Here ’s how we arrived at the endorsement list. First and fore-
most, Vermonters for Civil Unions favors incumbent legislators who voted for the Civil Union law last spring. They were there and took the
heat. No slight is intended to pro-civil union challengers in those districts.

With respect to open seats, or seats held by anti—civil union incumbents, we are endorsing pro-civil union challengers. In some cases, we
have endorsed a challenger whose views on civil unions are not entirely consistent with our own, but who is nonetheless the most likely,
given the alternatives, to be supportive of our position.

 ~ iGo‘\iélrnorg}_—
  HOWGTU  .

We have made multiple endorsements in multi—seat districts where possible. In cases in which we
endorse fewer candidates than available seats, we urge you to vote only for the endorsed candi-
date(s).

In some races there are more pro-civil union candidates than available seats. In some such cases
we have not endorsed all pro-civil union candidates because we urge voters to support the most
viable candidates to avoid splitting the pro-civil union vote. In other such districts, we have
endorsed more candidates than available seats, and you should choose among the endorsed can-
didates.

Please note that this list was prepared nearly two weeks ago in order to meet a print deadline.
We have tried to be as accurate as possible; but it is possible that we have made mistakes, or
that this list includes mistakes that have been called to our attention since October I 7. Please
