Kite favors nonpartisan secretary of state post in Vermont
Vermont candidate Constance L. Kite, a Democrat and 23 year member of the League of Women Voters, calls for abolishing partisan control of the secretary of state office. She proposes civil service or executive appointment for the post, arguing it should serve towns and the legislature without policy making. Kite, married with three children, aims to improve voter education and citizen services if elected, facing Republican incumbent Richard Thomas and Liberty Union challenger Steven Dunham in the November 7 race.
