Lt. Gov. Brian Dubie defeats Tom Costello

Wednesday, 11/05/08

Ross Sneyd - Colchester, VT

(Host) Lieutenant Governor Brian Dubie has won re-election to his fourth term.

Dubie easily outpolled Democrat Thomas Costello and won by almost 20 points.

(Dubie) ``It's with humility and sincere gratitude that I say thank you for this awesome responsibility and to look you in the eye the people of Vermont and to say I accept this responsibility.''

(Host) Costello is a former chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. He got into the race late and was never able to overcome Dubie's name recognition and popularity.
