Democratic | 89,509 | 46.36% | Governor Peter Shumlin Since no candidate received 50% of the vote in the 2014 General Election, the state Legislature, when it meets on 8 January 2015, will choose the next Governor (CHAPTER II, Section 47, paragraph 3 of the CONSTITUTION OF VERMONT). We expect the [Democratic] state Legislature to vote for the candidate who received the most votes-- Governor Peter Shumlin. The trailing candidate can allow the leading candidate to claim victory without legislative action. However, Mr. Milne stated that he will neither concede nor request a recount. 8 January 2015: Vermont Shumlin (Democratic) is re-elected by the state Legislature, 110-69, over Scott Milne (Republican). |

At the time, the ruling was not applied to statewide offices. Reference: CATHCART v. MEYER, 2004 WY 49, 88 P.3d 1050, Case Number: 04-32, 04-33, 04-34, Decided: 05/04/2004 | |||||
