Governor Phil Scott of Vermont signed major background check legislation in 2018, even going so far as to a public bill signing. His approvals fell dramatically, then rebounded. Vermont is a very pro gun state, but Scott went on to win by 15 anyway. If he didn't sign the bill, would he have won by more, or less?

Vermont isn't that pro-gun; it's just pro-gun for such a Democratic state. Like anywhere else, the gun supporters are disproportionately Republicans who weren't going to vote for a Democrat anyway.

If I recall correctly, he had an A+ NRA grade during the course of the 2016 election.

Not anymore presumably.
What do you think would have happened if he vetoed it?
