The 2017 Rutland, Vermont mayoral election was held March 6, 2017. David Allaire was elected to his first term with 51.85% of the popular vote, defeating incumbent mayor Christopher Louras.

Background

Incumbent mayor Christopher Louras was first elected in 2007.

In April 2016, Louras announced a program to bring up to 100 refugees of the Syrian Civil War from Syria and surrounding countries to the city to be housed.^[1] Rutland Board of Alders member David Allaire was a strong critic of both the program and its implementation. Candidate Michael Coppinger, a Rutland downtown development advocate, was in favor of such a program but had issues with Louras' specific program and announcing the program quickly without public input.^[2]
