[4]"We learn that the votes for Senators in Westport, Bristol County, have again been lost by the informality of the return. They were lost last year by being returned too late. They do not affect the choice, but they would have added 277 to the numbers of the federal Senators elected." New-Bedford Mercury (New Bedford, MA). May 19, 1815.
