Incumbent Republican Phil Scott’s decision to seek a sixth term and his unopposed primary victory have anchored trader expectations for a Republican win in the November 3, 2026, Vermont gubernatorial election. Scott maintains a solid lead in available polling, including a July University of New Hampshire survey showing him ahead of Democratic nominee Amanda Janoo by 11 points, even as his job approval fell to 51 percent. Janoo secured the Democratic nomination in the August 11 primary by a narrow margin over Aly Richards, yet faces the structural challenge of competing against a moderate incumbent who has repeatedly outperformed Vermont’s strong Democratic lean at the federal level. Traders appear to price in Scott’s established record on affordability and cross-aisle appeal as durable advantages heading into the general election.
