1829 Vermont gubernatorial election

The 1829 Vermont gubernatorial election took place in September and October, and resulted in the election of Samuel C. Crafts to a one-year term as governor.

The Vermont General Assembly met in Montpelier on October 8. The Vermont House of Representatives appointed a committee to review the votes of the freemen of Vermont for governor, lieutenant governor, treasurer, and members of the governor's council. The committee determined that Crafts had won election to a one-year term as governor.

In the election for lieutenant governor, the committee determined that Democratic-Republican Henry Olin had won election to a third one-year term. A contemporary newspaper account reported the vote totals as: Olin, 19,740 (81.5%); Lyman Fitch, 4,481 (18.5%).

Benjamin Swan won election to a one-year term as treasurer, his thirtieth.

As reported in Vermont's newspapers, the vote totals were: Swan 15,631 (99.9%); scattering, 10 (0.1%).
