The 1811 Vermont gubernatorial election for Governor of Vermont took place in September, and resulted in the election of Jonas Galusha to a one-year term.[1]
In the election for lieutenant governor, Paul Brigham defeated William Chamberlain to win his sixteenth one-year term.[1] In this contest, one Vermont newspaper recorded the vote totals as: Paul Brigham (Democratic-Republican), 11,896 (55.8%); William Chamberlain (Federalist), 9,415 (44.2%).[2]
Benjamin Swan was elected to a one-year term as treasurer, his twelfth, though the vote totals were not recorded.[1] According to contemporary newspaper articles, Swan, a Federalist was also endorsed by the Democratic-Republicans, and so was unopposed for reelection.[3][4]
In the race for governor, a contemporary newspaper article reported the results as follows.[2]
