At Large Delegate
Good afternoon fellow Vermont Republicans! I am excited to announce my candidacy for At Large Delegate to the VTGOP Executive Committee. I recently received the statewide Republican People’s Choice Award. I was humbled and grateful to receive the award, as it
acknowledged all the hard work and effort that I put into my work on a daily basis. It is the People’s Voice that I will continue to bring to the table if elected.
The Republican success in the 2024 election was just the beginning. If we are to continue the Party’s momentum forward, there is still a lot of work to be done. This coming year will be a pivotal one for Vermont. We will need strong leaders, as well as solid capable candidates, if we
are to continue that success.
I have been diligently working to seek out and encourage capable, grassroots constituents to organize and run for office. Not only do we, as a party, need to foster and mentor our younger generation, we also need to restore faith and trust in our Party. We also need to reignite enthusiasm in our electorate if we are to succeed. Vermonters statewide are looking for people to support, people to rally behind, and people who strongly advocate for a safer and more affordable Vermont. Vermonters want to see passion, strength and unity in our party. I believe these are all qualities I embody myself and encourage in others on a daily basis.
I am a strong and passionate advocate for Vermont. I ran for Attorney General against Progressive Democrat Charity Clark in 2022. I successfully unseated an incumbent Progressive Democrat in 2024, helping to break the super majority in the State Legislature. I also am Republican Vice Chair for the Town of Corinth and Orange County Committeeman.
My “Right Side Up” radio show and podcast allow me, on a weekly basis, to reach out to a statewide audience. I enjoy providing listeners with information to spark their interest and curiosity so that they can make more informed decisions. I’d be honored to serve as At Large Delegate to the VTGOP Executive Committee, and once again am asking for your vote!

Respectfully, Mike Tagliavia, Representing Orange-1
