Campaign section and noting the two candidate race

The #Campaign section of this article needs a summary, and the article needs to make it clear that there were two candidates in this race. How I tried to do it: oldid=1103796771, which was promptly reverted by @Jon698:, adding the comment "what you did created an unsourced section and removed a first mention link". I have no idea what this guidance means, and the reverted version of the article is much worse. It links to the national parties ("Democratic Party (United States)" and "Republican Party (United States)") rather than the much more relevant Vermont counterparts ("Vermont Democratic Party" and "Vermont Republican Party"). In general, it seems difficult to learn about the prior fifty years of elections in Burlington from the Burlington mayoral election articles. -- RobLa (talk) 08:55, 11 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
