The following summary quotes come from Gallivan's website:
Renewable energy: "Vermont needs a long-term plan to develop renewable energy sources, but we should not leap too quickly responding to short-term incentives."
Economy: "Everyone who loves Vermont should find opportunities to work and stay in Vermont."
Education: "The biggest issue I see for our district schools, and for many schools in the state, is keeping excellent programs while experiencing decreased enrollments."
Health care: "Health care reform is evolving day-by-day, and will likely be presented in an affordable package in the near future."
Representation: Representation is an issue? I think it is at this point because our whole nation seems to have erred on this idea."

Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
