7/16/18: Windsor County race for Senate may be state’s new bellwether
McCormack says the state’s new gun control law was necessary, responsible legislation. In fact, he sees his votes for gun control as praiseworthy as he seeks to fend off GOP challengers.
“I look forward to defending Vermont’s new gun safety laws,” McCormack told True North. “Time will tell if they’re effective, but they’re a good effort and completely constitutional.”

Gun control is another issue that Democrats split on.
The political victory fund of the National Rifle Association endorses Nitka in the race and issued “A” grades to the three Republican challengers. McCormack and Clarkson are graded “F”.
Woodward and McCormack also support universal background checks.
“A careful reading of the Second Amendment should demonstrate that reasonable regulation is not an infringement,” McCormack said. “I think background checks and safe storage are reasonable.”
