Notes

  1. ↑ Glashan records this election as taking place on 8 April.
  2. ↑ Some sources record the result as Trumbull 13,689, Hart 8,223; this includes 989 votes for Trumbull and 413 for Hart from six towns rejected by the General Assembly.
  3. ↑ Two contemporary newspapers quote a letter dated November 4 which states the election took place the previous Thursday, which would place the election on October 31. [7] [8] However, another newspaper states that the legislature did not meet until 5 November, which would suggest a date a week later. [9] An election in the first week of November would be in line with other gubernatorial elections in Georgia in the 1800s.
  4. ↑ Many sources give the result as Strong 35,204, Sullivan 33,518, Scattering 264, but these are the results given before the canvass of votes by the state legislature which rejected the votes of 62 towns. Glashan gives Sullivan's total as 33,543, and scattering votes as 239. This discrepancy depends on the allocation of 25 votes given for "James Solvan."
  5. ↑ Includes scattering votes.
  6. ↑ Some sources give Williams' total as 65. The result given here is that given in the North Carolina Legislative Papers.
  7. ↑ Most sources agree on this result, and one source states that this is the result declared in the General Assembly. [43] This result can be achieved by taking the results from Belmont, Butler, Columbiana, Fairfield, Franklin, Highland, and Ross, Greene, Jefferson, Scioto, Warren, and Washington, Gallia, and Muskingum counties only. A New Nation Votes includes returns from Adams, Athens, Clermont, Hamilton, and Montgomery counties, and records the result as Tiffin 6,321, Nathaniel Massie 171, Scattering 27. [44] It is further recorded that Tiffin received 379 votes in Trumbull County. [45]
  8. ↑ Some sources give Tiffin's total as 4,788, which is the sum of the county breakdown for the counties included in the official total. [4] [46] [47] [48] [49] [50]
  9. ↑ Some sources give Snyder's total as 38,833. This discrepancy appears to come from the transposition of the last two digits of Snyder's total, plus the scattering votes. 38,483 is the figure given in the Pennsylvania Senate Journal.
  10. ↑ The scattering votes were cast for "Samuel Snyder" in Bucks County.
  11. ↑ Glashan records this election as taking place on 17 April.

  14. ↑ Various sources give slightly different results for this election. The result given here is that described by A New Nation Votes as "the officially recorded votes".
