Description

This reference work provides complete returns for the presidential elections by state and county for the period 1788 to 1860.

Available nowhere else in one volume, this information has been pieced together through years of research of original sources of many kinds.

The election returns include each candidate's name, party, number of votes and percentage of votes.

Explanatory footnotes and source information accompany the returns, as well as maps that show presidential election districts for those states and elections when presidential elections were so conducted.

Also included are a history of voting for presidential electors and the influence of political parties on the electors, as well as listings of election dates, county names (past and present), party abbreviations used in the book, and counties created following each state's first popular election of electors.
