Notes:

[1]Elected.
[2]Many sources report 181 "scattering" votes, however, they usually only report individuals' numbers for the top two candidates.
[3]Grand Isle County was formed from parts of Franklin and Chittenden Counties in 1802, but it was not officially incorporated until 1806. In this election, records from towns in the new Grand Isle County (Vineyard), were still counted in Franklin County.
[4]The Rutland Herald (Rutland, VT), September 20, reports 129 votes for Isaac Tichenor and 19 for Israel Smith in Royalton.
