[4]Both Der Readinger Adler (Reading, PA) from November 3 and The Franklin Repository (Chambersburg, PA) from October 20 list Joseph MacKinney with 1369 total votes and Daniel Royer with 1366 total votes. Township totals provided add up to 1359 for MacKinney and 1369 for Royer which seems to be because of incomplete returns.
