In all lle elections for President and Vice Pres
ident prior to and including that of the year 1900,
the votes were for persons residing in different

ldent. and the merit highest Vice President An cleo
ton was generally made some Presidential Elec
tor erasing the name of the person intended for
Vice President thus giving the other majority OF
votes In 1900 Jefferson and Burr had equal
number Of votes, and the election was thrown in
to the House of Representatives, and it was not
until after protraced balloting for six days, amid
