Federalist unpledged electors carried three single-member districts; the electors chosen from these districts subsequently abstained from the Electoral College vote. Monroe carried the remaining six districts, including two multi-member districts, worth a combined eight electoral votes. Monroe won the national election handily, defeating the senior U.S. senator from New York Rufus King, who received 34 votes from unpledged electors despite not being a candidate.1816 Electoral College Results https://www.archives.gov/electoral-college/1816 National Archives February 22, 2025 General election Summary Maryland chose 11 electors from nine electoral districts—seven single-member districts and two districts represented by two members apiece. Nineteenth century election laws required voters to vote directly for members of the Electoral College rather than for president. This sometimes resulted in small differences in the number of votes cast for electors pledged to the same presidential candidate if some voters did not vote for all the electors nominated by a party, or if multiple tickets pledged to the same candidate appeared.Lampi Philip J.
