How should towns nominate their town officer candidates?
That was the question posed in last week's edition in a story from Fairlee as some community members seek to change the nomination process in that town. In Fairlee, candidates for a selectboard seat and other officer positions are nominated from the floor at March town meeting. Shortly after nominations are offered, a vote on the candidates takes place.
It's a question that is a valid one, not just in Fairlee, but for many towns throughout Vermont as well. Bradford, Groton, Ryegate and Topsham all elect officers in a similar manner, while Corinth, Newbury, Thetford, Vershire and West Fairlee elect theirs by Australian ballot.
