Notes:
[1]Elected.
[2]The official vote totals, reported by individual voting district, are printed in The Chester and Delaware Federalist (West Chester, PA) from October 20 and are listed here. The Democratic Press (Philadelphia, PA) from October 19 and The Intelligencer, and Weekly Advertiser (Lancaster, PA) from October 30 list Joseph Sharp with 2767 votes. These sources do not provide individual voting district totals, and so it is unclear where the two sets of reported totals differ.
