Associated Press File
This file photo shows voters in Montpelier in 2012. The 2018 midterm elections are just about a week away, and we talked with reporter John Flowers about Addison County races to to learn more about who is running for office in this region of Vermont.

With a week to go before the midterm elections, VPR is homing in on some of the more compelling elections in specific parts of the state. Reporter John Flowers from the Addison Independent fills us in on Addison County elections, including the races for state Senate and House seats, and for county sheriff.

Listen to Mitch Wertlieb's conversation with Flowers above.

A graduate of NYU with a Master's Degree in journalism, Mitch has more than 20 years experience in radio news. He got his start as news director at NYU's college station, and moved on to a news director (and part-time DJ position) for commercial radio station WMVY on Martha's Vineyard. But public radio was where Mitch wanted to be and he eventually moved on to Boston where he worked for six years in a number of different capacities at member station WBUR...as a Senior Producer, Editor, and fill-in co-host of the nationally distributed Here and Now. Mitch has been a guest host of the national NPR sports program "Only A Game". He's also worked as an editor and producer for international news coverage with Monitor Radio in Boston.
Bayla joined VPR in 2018 as the producer for Morning Edition. She left in 2019.
