[11]The Green-Mountain Farmer (Bennington, VT), January 5, 1813, and The Rutland Vermont Herald (Rutland, VT), January 6, 1813, refer to the Federalist ticket as the Submission Ticket.
[12]Bennington News-Letter (Bennington, VT) refers to the Federalist ticket as the Peace Ticket and the Republican ticket as the War Ticket.
[13]The Vermont Mirror (Middlebury, VT), January 6, 1813: "The candidates elected are all Madisonian Democrats."
[14]The Green-Mountain Farmer (Bennington, VT), January 5, 1813: "From the above statement it appears, that the Federal Ticket has received about 200 only and the Republican Ticket 3150 less, than their respective votes for governor, in September last. 3150 Fail us for a Day, yet Heaven preserves Republican Rights, against a host of foes, marshaled and pitted to a single man, in the small state of Vermont. Our satisfaction will be much more easily conceived by congenial minds, than we can express by language, on finding that ALL THE VOTES given in by the freemen of this state, for representatives to Congress were counted: NOT A VOTE WAS OMITTED IN THE CANVASING: This we are fully authorised to assert, the cavils of coalition opponents notwithstanding. The Boston Centinel affirmed the election of SIX SUBMISSION MEN from VERMONT to mis-represent her in the next Congress: the evil is averted, our representation is consonant to our established political character: To roast a BUCK whole, claimed by a sportsman, tho' shot by another man, (as we hear had been promised in Bennington, to feast the Feds. and Clintonians,) would now be unnecessary, an Arlington RABBIT, if caught, would be sufficient to feast on surfeiting all of that description in Bennington, who will rejoice in the auspicious result. While the enemies of republicanism have been boasting of its decline in Vermont, and spreading the falacy of their success from east to west, and from north to south, including Nova Scotia and Canada, we have only stated that from the inattention of the republicans the result was not certain. In the event we find that the state retains her character ."
[15]Bennington News-Letter (Bennington, VT), January 6, 1813: "The following has been handed to us, as the result of the late Congressional Election in this State: and although the war party, and the friends of the present ruinous measures, have prevailed, it is by a decreased majority, that must astonish every one. Had this election taken place ten days later, after the remains of the drafted militia, who had been forced to the lines last fall to do nothing, returned to their homes, it would have made an accession to the peace Ticket of 2000 votes. This the War-Hawks well knew, and therefore prudently prevented this sickly, abused and degraded corps, from returning in season to palm their opinions upon their friends and acquaintance before the election. Add to this, that many desponding of success, did not come to the polls, thinking from the late democratic majority, that all was lost. We hope this error in judgement will not again keep any friend to his country from elections."
[16]The Rutland Vermont Herald (Rutland, VT), January 6, 1813: "We give the following schedule of Votes to shew the comparative result between the Fall and Congressional Election. Mr. Skinner and Mr. Chittenden, having the greatest number of votes on each Ticket for Members of Congress, we draw our comparison from the votes given to these two gentlemen with those given Gov. Galusha and Mr. Chittenden [in the election for Governor] ... From the foregoing and from other testimony on which much reliance may be placed, it is clear that the republican majority would have been nearly as large as last fall had there not been a criminal remisness on the part of the friends to government and honorable peace in attending the polls. It gives us pleasure that we are authorised to state, the votes of every town in the State were counted--not one lost--Capt. Dunham's suspicions to the contrary notwithstanding. It is worthy of remark that in the frontier Counties of Grand-Isle, Franklin, Orleans and Essex, which are most exposed to the consequent calamities resulting from war, there has been a nett gain in favor of the honorable peace over the combined Federal and Clintonian submission Ticket, which clearly shows that it is owing to the conscious security of the friends of union and honorable peace, in those towns that gave such overwhelming majorities last fall that the majority was so small at the late election. But we have reason to congratulate the citizens of Vermont who are friends to the union and honorable peace that in the thirteenth Congress Vermont will have but one voice--which has never been the case since she has been a member of the union."
[17]The Official Results list Martin Chittenden with 1577 votes, Chauncey Langdon with 1574 votes, Daniel Chipman with 1577 votes, Jonathan Hubbard with 1576 votes, William Chamberlain with 1575 votes and John Noyes with 1574 votes but the town totals add up to 1550 votes for Chittenden, 1547 votes for Langdon, 1550 votes for Chipman, 1549 votes for Hubbard, 1548 votes for Chamberlain and 1547 votes for Noyes.
