Vermont’s at-large congressional district maintains a strong Democratic tilt, reflected in trader consensus favoring incumbent Becca Balint at 95.9% over Republican Gerald Malloy at 4.5%. Balint secured her party’s nomination with 98% in the August 2026 primary and previously won reelection by margins exceeding 30 points, consistent with the seat’s partisan voting index and absence of a Republican victor since 1988. Malloy, who prevailed in the GOP primary, has trailed significantly in prior statewide bids. Nonpartisan ratings classify the race as safe or solid Democratic. Late developments capable of narrowing the gap would require substantial shifts in voter turnout patterns or unforeseen national events altering the state’s baseline preferences before November.
