Nawrath and Heaton Vie for Benn 1 Seat in Vermont House Race

In Manchester, Vermont, two candidates contest the Benn 1 district for the second seat as W. Michael Nawrath seeks to overcome Orrin H. Beattie and Jack Heaton. Beattie leads in the primary but aims for Speaker, while Heaton defends Route 7 plans and energy policy amid a tight, ticket-splitanced race. Nawrath touts Vietnam-era service, door-to-door campaigning, and opposition to long-term tax approaches, urging nuclear plant approvals and rate restructuring. Heaton stresses road upgrades, tourism balance, light industry, and expanding the Public Service Board, with Beattie seeking speaker support and maintaining a low profile.
