The total vote cast for governor was
1896, lOl, being III, ,e49 less than the vote
for President in 1875. The highest
vote received by any Republican was
439, 1S9 for Wadsworth for comptroller
and the highest vote received by any
Democrat was 9,615 for Seymourfol
state engineer. The combined Dem
ocratic vote for Robinson and Kelly
for governor is 81, ,635 more than the
Republican vote for Cornell, and IA
0S2 more than the largest vote polle6
for the highest Republican candidate
Leaving the triangular gubernatoria
contest out of the question, and view
ing the returns from the standpoint o
the square party fight for the si>
other state officers, we find the loves
Republican majority to be l22 fol
lieutenant governor and the highes
to be 6,s73 for comptroller, while
Horatio Seymour, .ir., Democrat, il
chosen state engineer by 14,024.
