Snelling Stalks Votes With Dollar Sign Bait
Rep Richard Snelling of Shelburne runs a businesslike gubernatorial campaign stressing management efficiency and environmental protection tied to economic growth. He campaigns through Windham County including Bellows Falls High School and Brattleboro Rotary events, touting a moderate, fiscally conservative platform with a Governor's Cost Control Council and a private sector advisory office. His approach contrasts with rival Stella Hackel and draws Democratic support, while he notes Democrats for Snelling bumper stickers and a broad moderate base.

Voter apathy not a major New England problem
A UPI report finds voter apathy not a major New England concern as 1976 campaigns begin with Carter and Ford seeking voters in New Hampshire and Massachusetts. Turnout projections vary by state, with New Hampshire at 60–65 percent, Connecticut aiming high, and Maine and Rhode Island seeing mixed forecasts. Officials cite referenda in Massachusetts, base cutbacks, and campaign-law effects as factors shaping expected participation.
