Notes:
[1]The Columbian May 1st and 3rd, 1815, The New-York Herald (New York, NY) May 3, 1815, Mercantile Advertiser May 1, 1815, and the National Advocate May 2, 1815 all list Leffert Lefferts with 172 votes in Ward 10 for a total of 1888. None of these are quoted as being an Official Canvass. Only the Commercial Advertiser April 29, 1815 and the New-York Spectator (New York, NY) report being Official Returns.
[2]Newspapers only listed a 30 vote majority for Barker in Northfield. The above votes for this town are estimated based on the correlation of the State Senator and Assembly results in that town for previous elections from 1807 - 1812.
[3]In Suffolk County, 5 votes have been credited to Leffert Lefferts, which were cast 'without designation of office'.
[4]Jacob Baker received 1 vote as Jacob Backer.
