Mapping Early American Elections


12th Congress: Vermont 1810

Vermont used the district system for electing members to Congress.

1 Chauncey Langdon Federalist 1,634 34%
2 William Strong Democratic-Republican 3,474 53.5%

4 Martin Chittenden Federalist 3,014 50%
4 Ezra Butler Democratic-Republican 2,863 47.5%

In most cases, only candidates who received more than 5 percent of the vote in a district are reported. Other candidates are reported as a group, but only if they in aggregate received more than 5 percent of the vote. In addition, percentages for each district may not add up to 100 percent due to rounding. The term Dissenting Republican includes various breakaway factions of the Democratic-Republican party.
