The Vermont Women’s Rally in Montpelier over the weekend coincided with the National Women’s March in the nation’s capital.

The rally was held on the Statehouse lawn in Montpelier to highlight Vermont’s history of supporting women’s rights. Democrat Madeline Kunin, now 91, is Vermont’s only female governor to date. She said that women will decide the outcome of the presidential election.

“This is a tense election. Which means it can go either way and it’s up to us to declare victory. Because this will be our victory and it will be glorious,” Kunin told the crowd.

Other speakers at the rally included Vermont Attorney General Charity Clark, a Democrat, and U.S. Senators Bernie Sanders, an independent, and Peter Welch, a Democrat.
