Orwell Free Library hosts event to learn what it takes to serve in the State Legislature

Rep. Joe Andriano, D-Orwell, has announced he won’t seek re-election to another term representing the Addison-Rutland House district, citing the financial compromise of holding public office as a major reason.

Joseph Andriano knew during his college years in Ohio that he wanted to make Vermont his home.

Voters in two local Vermont House districts had only one name on their ballot, and in both cases those candidates — unsurprisingly — won.
