This caused many Union and Native American state parties to remove him and his running mate Charles Jones Jenkins from their slates of electors and was replaced by Jacob Broom and Reynell Coates. The Webster-Jenkins Union ticket, however, remained on the ballot in both Massachusetts and Georgia. As of 2020, this election marks only the first of three times (after 1972 and 1980) that Massachusetts has not voted for the same candidate as neighboring Rhode Island.
