[4]The True American (Trenton, NJ) reports 2389 votes for John Lacey in Burlington County but the sum of totals per township is 2391.

[5]"The majority of Burlington for the federal ticket is nearly double to what it was at the previous election; and in Somerset and Bergen, the steady preponderance of Federalism leaves democracy hopeless in those respectable counties--Their representatives, like the federal candidates generally throughout the state, are men who fought the battles of the revolution." Trenton Federalist (Trenton, NJ). October 24, 1803.
