RESULT OF THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION OF 1864.
[This table includes the Home Vote and the Army Vote.]
*In Wisconsin, 3,163 votes for Lincoln, and 1,729 votes for McClellan electors were rejected for informality, and 418 scattering votes were cast, so that the total vote should have been 148,749.
This State was entitled to three electors, but one dying before the canvass was concluded, but two votes were cast in the Electoral College.
In Vermont, a large army vote was returned too late to be counted.
In the camps of Kentucky soldiers within that State, the army vote was included in the general canvass.
No army vote was received until too late for the canvass.
The Kansas soldiers' vote was 2,867 for Lincoln and 543 for McClellan; not canvassed on account of being received too late.
President LINCOLN's estimate, page 558, was but 129 less than the exact result!
