  • Direct Democracy to the Impact of Progressive Politics
    THE VERMONT DIFFERENCE: DIRECT DEMOCRACY TO THE IMPACT OF PROGRESSIVE POLITICS by Colleen R. Jackson A thesis submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of the Master of Arts in Government Baltimore, Maryland May, 2021 © 2021 Colleen R. Jackson All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT The Vermont political environment is home to three, frequently lauded, unique attributes that separates it from other states. This thesis investigates why and how Vermont sees such a prevalence in split ticket voting, how the most successful third party in the country, the Vermont Progressive Party, has been able to establish and maintain success in Vermont for the last forty years, and investigates of the current state, successes, failures, and future of direct democracy in Vermont’s town meetings. The thesis then asks whether each of these elements is replicable outside of the Vermont political environment and what the implications are for expansion of these attributes to other states and nationwide. The research uses a range of methodologies: an IVR survey and in-depth follow up interviews for split ticket voters, in-depth interviews of members of the Vermont Progressive Party, and an online survey of Vermont town clerks. This thesis finds that split ticket voters in Vermont point to a number of reasons for splitting their ticket, most prominently, however, it is due to the close connection that Vermonters feel to their political representatives which can transcend party label. The Progressive Party’s success is largely due to Bernie Sanders’ proof of concept when he became mayor of Burlington, VT, in addition to community-building organization techniques, and a legislative environment that does not overly hinder third party candidates and parties.

  • Building the Progressive City: Third Sector Housing in Burlington By
    Building the Progressive City: Third Sector Housing in Burlington By John Emmeus Davis Two months after Ronald Reagan assumed office as the fortieth president of the United States, Bernie Sanders was elected the thirty-second mayor of Burlington, Vermont. Both men remained in office for eight years. When Reagan stepped down in 1989, his policies and programs were continued by his vice-president, who was elevated to the presidency by the same conservative coalition that had supported Reagan. Sanders stepped down in 1989 after serving four two-year terms as mayor. His policies and programs were continued by Peter Clavelle, who had served as Sanders’s director of community and economic development. Clavelle was carried into office on the shoulders of Burlington’s “Progressive Coalition,’ the same third-party movement that had supported Sanders. There is considerable irony in the fact that the decade of the “Reagan revolution” in Washington was also the decade of “Sanderista” rule in Burlington. These two political movements had little in common. Their leaders, Reagan and Sanders, shared even less. Indeed, it would have been difficult to find two elected officials anywhere in the United States during the 1980s who were further apart in background, ideology, and political agenda. The man elected president was a middle-class midwesterner of Irish descent whose entire career, first in the movies and then in politics, had been heavily bankrolled and carefully scripted by men of wealth and power. Ronald Reagan was the most conservative politician to occupy the White House in fifty years, a person whose entire political philosophy was built around the single idea that private individuals and private markets could solve nearly every problem of poverty, unemployment, and injustice if government would just stop meddling in matters that were not its proper concern.
