Vermont governor race: what the forecasters say

Amanda Janoo (D) vs Phil Scott (R) · candidates as listed by Race to the WH

The seat is held by a Republican. Inside Elections and Race to the WH favor the Republican. They lean the same way, but at least one rates the race close, so it is graded as a battleground. No rating change caught here since Oct 21.

Result: after Nov 3. Once the race is called, the result appears on this page, and each forecaster’s final rating, sealed before the polls close, is graded under the published rules.

Changes since Oct 21 (0)

A change of rating, of favorite, or of a model’s lean across 50%. Each change is sealed with the time we first saw it. Chances are rounded, so a rating can change while the number stays the same.

Unchanged since Oct 21: Inside Elections and Race to the WH.

Inside Elections dates its last change here Oct 15, by its own change date: Solid Republican → Likely Republican. That is before our monitoring began on Oct 21, so it is not in the count above.

How this race will be graded

Every forecast on this page is sealed before the vote. Once the race is called, a right call earns 1 point, a Toss-up ½ and a wrong call 0, the same rule for both. Cook, Sabato, Silver and other raters get their own table on the scoreboard.
