Elected Mayor of Burlington

Peter Clavelle
Progressive Coalition

On March 7, 1995 a mayoral election was held in Burlington, Vermont, United States. Progressive Coalition nominee Peter Clavelle, the former mayor who had lost reelection in the 1993 election, defeated incumbent Republican Mayor Peter Brownell, Democratic nominee Paul Lafayette, and other candidates.

Brownell ended the Progressive's control over the mayoralty with his victory in the 1993 election, but during his tenure the Progressives gained control over the city council. Michael Monte and Sharon Bushor, independent members of the city council, considered running for the mayoralty with the Progressive nomination, but declined after Clavelle announced his campaign. Lafayette, the Democratic mayoral nominee from the 1987 election, ran in the election.

Clavelle won in the election with a plurality of the vote after outspending Brownell and Lafayette. His victory was attributed to Brownell and Lafayette splitting the vote and his campaign organization. He was the first mayor since James Edmund Burke in the 1933 election to return to the position after losing reelection. Brownell is the most recent Republican to have served as mayor of Burlington.
