June 2, 2022 ness School and the University of Michigan Law School. From 2010 to 2021, he served on the South Burlington School Board. As the session ended a few weeks ago, Reps. Ann Pugh, John Killacky, Maida Townsend each announced they would not run for reelection to their seats. Running for Pugh’s seat in Chittenden-9 is newcomer Emilie Krasnow, a native Vermonter and resident of South Burling-ton for 17 years. She has experience in the Statehouse, having worked as an assistant in the Senate for seven years and then in the Vermont lieutenant governor’s office until 2019. Krasnow volunteers at the local food shelf and serves on the city’s housing trust committee, the South Burlington Rotary Club, the ASPIRE South Burlington Library Foundation volunteer committee, as vice chair on the Chittenden County Democratic Committee and as secretary for the South Burlington Democratic Committee. Brian Minier, who served on the South Burlington School Board until last March, announced he will run for the seat vacated by Killacky. Minier was elected to the school board in 2019 and described his experience there as a rewarding bootcamp in local educa-tion and politics. He has two master’s degrees from the University of Wiscon-sin in Russian literature and area studies. After moving to Vermont with his family, he spent time as a stay-at-home father and worked as an administrative assistant for the University of Vermont’s Department of German and Russian, where his wife also works as a professor. South Burlington resident Kate Nugent, a local justice of the peace and member of the South Burlington Board of Civil Authority, plans to run for Townsend’s seat. Nugent is also a member of South Burlington Rotary and works as the exec-utive director of the Winooski Partnership for Prevention, which works to prevent substance abuse in the community. She earned a bachelor’s degree from Colgate University in international rela-tions and French and a master’s from the University of South Carolina in English literature. She also teaches at the Commu-nity College of Vermont and holds a certif-icate in nonprofit management from Marl-boro College. In the fifth and newest House seat, resi-dent Noah Hyman is running to represent South Burlington. The Senate After Chittenden County was forced to break up its six-seat Senate district, the county was partitioned into three districts, with the new Chittenden Southeast District including South Burlington, Bolton, Burl-ington’s South-End, Charlotte, Hinesburg, Shelburne, Jericho, Richmond, St. George, Williston and Underhill. The other Senate districts include Chit-tenden Central with three senators and Chittenden North with one senator. With only three open seats and five candidates, three of whom are incumbents, the local delegation could see some turn-over. Newcomers Two newcomers are vying for Senate seats this year: Lewis Mudge and Steve May. May, a former selectboard member in Richmond, is making a third attempt at the state legislative branch, running for a seat in the new Chittenden Southeast District. He previously ran for a Senate seat in 2018 and 2020. He owns a private practice in Montpelier and works as a social worker. Lewis Mudge, who currently serves on the Charlotte Selectboard, did not respond to requests for comment. Incumbents Sen. Thomas Chittenden is running for reelection to his seat in the newly formed Chittenden Southeast district. He’s served on the South Burlington city council for eight years and in the legislature for one term, where he sits on three committees, the Senate committees on transportation, education, and joint information technolo-gy oversight. Sen. Virginia “Ginny” Lyons of Willis-ton, whose seat falls within the new Chit-tenden Southeast district, plans to run again. She was first elected to the Legisla-ture in 2000 and has served on numerous committees, including but not limited to, the Health Reform Oversight Committee, as chair of the Joint Legislative Child Protec-tion Oversight Committee, the Joint Carbon Emissions Reduction Committee, the Joint Legislative Justice Oversight Commit-tee and as co-chair of the Task Force on Affordable, Accessible Health Care. She is also a college professor at the University of Vermont, where she earned her doctorate. Perhaps the most surprising candidate to join the race at the last second is sitting senator Kesha Ram Hinsdale who, until Thursday, seemed to be fierce competition for the state’s U.S. House race. Last Friday, after the deadline closed to file petitions for state Legislature, Ram Hinsdale announced she was bowing out of the national race and endorsing her colleague in the legislature, Senate Presi-dent Pro Tempore Becca Balint, a Demo-crat from Windham, to take over for U.S. Rep. Peter Welch, who hopes to win the seat being vacated by U.S. Sen. Patrick Leahy. Before being elected to represent Chit-tenden County in the Senate in 2020, Ram Hinsdale served in the House of Represen-tatives from 2008 to 2016. The Shelburne resident has bachelor’s degrees in natural resource planning and political science from the University of Vermont, as well as a master’s degree in public administra-tion from the Harvard Kennedy School of Government. When she was elected in 2020, Ram Hinsdale became the first woman of color ever to serve in the Vermont Senate.South Burlington’s other sitting senator, Michael Sirotkin, announced he will not run for reelection. Sirotkin, who was appoint-ed to his wife’s senatorial seat in 2014 after she died from lung cancer, brought a law background to the Statehouse, having worked at Vermont Legal Aid in the 1970s and 1980s, in addition to private practice. He serves on the Senate committee for economic development and finance, chairs the Committee on Housing and General Affairs, and co-chairs the Small Business Solutions Task Force. Also running for Welch’s seat are Lt. Gov. Molly Gray, Sianay Chase Clifford of Essex, Louis Meyers of South Burlington, Ericka Bundy Redic of Burlington, Anya Tynio of Charleston and Liam Madden.
