Excerpt from Old Time Notes of Pennsylvania, Vol. 1: A Connected and Chronological Record of the Commercial, Industrial and Educational Advancement of Pennsylvania, and the Inner History of All Political Movements Since the Adoption of the Constitution of 1838 Under the Constitution it is within the power of a State to choose electors as the Legislature shall direct, and in the absence of a popular vote it is competent for any Legislature to choose presidential electors. Not only did the Federal senate refuse to permit the passage of the bill providing for an election, but it refused to go into joint convention to choose presiden tial electors, because in the convention the friends of Jefferson had a majority. The State was entitled to fifteen electors, and the Federal senate finally proposed to the house that its members would go into joint con vention upon the condition that each house Should first name eight candidates for electors and that in the joint convention none should be voted for but the sixteen thus presented. The friends of Jefferson were com pelled to accept the proposition or to lose the entire vote of the State, and they accepted the terms and thereby got eight of the fifteen votes for Jefferson, while Adams received seven.
