[6]The official vote totals, reported by individual voting district, are printed in The Chester and Delaware Federalist (West Chester, PA) from October 20 and are listed here. The Democratic Press (Philadelphia, PA) from October 19, Der Readinger Adler (Reading, PA) from October 26, and The Intelligencer, and Weekly Advertiser (Lancaster, PA) from October 30 report switched totals for John Menough and Lea Pusey, list John G. Bull with 2768 votes, and list Abraham Bailey with 2770 votes. These sources do not provide individual voting district totals, and so it is unclear where the two sets of reported totals differ.
