Vermont is a small, and quite poor, state where the Republican party has become vestigial (and angry) and where consequently politics plays out in different forms than the conventional two-party competition.
The local Burlington weekly, Seven Days, offers a nice primer for the benefit of arriving college students on how the Green Mountain State does democracy. This is a state that WANTS college students to get involved.
I wonder how politics there compare to Hawaii,another one-party state.
