Why is Washington said to have been
elected unanimously in 1892, when he re-
ceived La electoral votes to Adams's a?
Because such practically was the case.
Until 1904 each elector voted for two car
didates for President, the one getting the
most votes being declared President, the
one coming next Vice President. In 1892
Washington's 132 votes represented vote
from each elector voting. The other 132
included so for George Clinton. for Thomas
Jefferson and for Aaron Burr.
