佛蒙特州州长选战第二场辩论今晚举行：NBC5 晚8点播出
佛蒙特州州长选举的第二场候选人辩论将于今晚（10月22日）晚8点由 NBC5 主持播出，寻求第六任期的共和党现任州长 Phil Scott 将再战民主党/进步党挑战者 Amanda Janoo。两人已于10月21日晚在 Vermont Public 完成了首场辩论，第三场辩论将于10月28日晚7点由 WCAX 电视台播出。本站10月21日已报道首场辩论的预告，本条为本轮选战的跟进。
据《Seven Days》报道，首场辩论中双方在无家可归、犯罪与毒品成瘾问题上立场分明：Janoo 主张「住房优先」，即直接提供永久住房及配套支持；Scott 则主推其政府在 Burlington 建立的「问责法院」，强调以问责促进心理健康与戒毒康复。核电议题上，Janoo 明确表示在解决核废料问题之前不支持发展核电。
辩论尾声出现意外温情一幕：Scott 称自己敬重前民主党参议员 Patrick Leahy 和已故州参议员 Dick Mazza；Janoo 则称敬重 Scott 本人，说「他人超级好」。
Janoo 是福祉经济联盟（Wellbeing Economy Alliance）的经济学家，此前从未参选公职。两项9月民调结果分歧明显：Vermont Public 9月下旬公布的民调显示 Scott 领先10个百分点；新罕布什尔大学绿山州民调则显示 Janoo 以49%对43%领先。
Second Vermont Gubernatorial Debate Tonight: NBC5 Airs Scott-Janoo Matchup at 8 p.m.
The second debate in Vermont's gubernatorial race will air tonight (October 22) at 8 p.m., hosted by NBC5, with Republican Gov. Phil Scott, seeking a sixth term, facing Democratic/Progressive challenger Amanda Janoo again. The two completed their first debate on October 21 on Vermont Public, and a third debate will air on WCAX-TV on October 28 at 7 p.m.
According to Seven Days, the first debate showed clear differences on homelessness, crime and drug addiction: Janoo favors a "housing first" approach providing permanent housing with wraparound supports, while Scott touted the "accountability court" his administration established in Burlington, emphasizing accountability alongside mental-health and addiction recovery. On nuclear power, Janoo said she will not support developing it until the nuclear waste problem is solved.
The debate ended on a surprisingly friendly note: Scott named former Democratic U.S. senator Patrick Leahy and the late state senator Dick Mazza as figures he respects, while Janoo said she respects Scott himself, calling him "super nice."
Janoo, an economist with the Wellbeing Economy Alliance, has never run for office before. Two September polls diverged sharply: a Vermont Public poll released in late September had Scott leading by 10 points, while the University of New Hampshire's Green Mountain State Poll showed Janoo ahead 49% to 43%.
