Election Notes
New Hampshire was entitled to elect three representatives. Under a state law adopted November 12, 1788, all three were elected at large, each voter being entitled to vote for up to three candidates.
These data are for the second round of voting, held February 2, 1789. When the first round was held on December 15, 1788, no candidate received a majority of the vote, a requirement for election under state law. The candidates with the six highest vote totals then proceeded to the second round.
All six candidates were Federalists. At least 2,850 ballots were cast, and each of these contained a vote for one or more of these candidates.
In the candidate pages (above), Unsupporting refers to voters who did not cast a vote for the candidate. In each case this is an approximation only.
These data are drawn from imperfect contemporary sources; see the records reprinted in The Documentary History of the First Federal Elections, 1: 835-838 (1976). Unaccounted for in the county data are 919 votes.
