Not really. Phil Hoff was elected Governor in 1962, the first democrat since the civil war. He was followed by Deane Davis, a conservative Republican, who was followed by a right of center Democrat, Tom Salmon.
Vermont has had four governors over the last 30 years, two centrist Democrats in Madeleine Kunin and Howard Dean, one moderate Republican in Dick Snelling, and the current Jim Douglas.
Was remembering Snelling mostly, who was governor when I lived in the state, I guess, and the current governor.
