Woodford fights to stay in Bennington district
Woodford residents and four incumbent District 3 legislators testified to the House Government Operations Committee that Woodford should remain in the Bennington based District 3. The Aug 8 revision moved Woodford into a new district with Searsburg Stamford and Readsboro, sparking unhappiness as Pownal joins District 3 while Woodford would be left out. The plan faces a plus or minus 8.2 percent deviation rule, and a Woodfordless District 74 would exceed allowable limits, complicating any redraw.
