Notes:

[1]The Federalists are referred to as members of the British Party in the October 21 edition of The Democratic Press (Philadelphia, PA). This was a Jeffersonian newspaper and wanted to make the Federalists look bad by referring to them as the "British Party." The Federalists are also referred to as Whigs in The Intelligencer, and Weekly Advertiser (Lancaster, PA) from October 24, 1812.

[2]These votes are listed in The Chester and Delaware Federalist (West Chester, PA) as having been cast at the "New London Cross Roads."
