Sources

  • Result in The Tribune Almanac compiled by Horace Greeley of the New York Tribune (Greeley still identifies the Republicans as "Unionists", but by the time of this election the Civil War was over and the parties re-aligned. For example, the Democratic ticket had Union generals Slocum and Patrick, War Democrat Van Buren, and pre-war Republican Robinson.)
  • The tickets: THE ELECTION TO-DAY in NYT on November 7, 1865 (giving "Republican" and "Democratic" tickets)

Notes

  1. ^ STATE POLITICS.; The New-York Democratic Convention in NYT on September 7, 1865
  2. ^ GENERAL NEWS in NYT on September 8, 1865
  3. ^ UNION STATE CONVENTION.; ...The Democratic Candidates Entirely Ignored in NYT on September 21, 1865 (The headline says "Union", but the text says "Republican". Although the Union was still very much invoked, and most of the ticket were Union generals (Barlow, Hillhouse, Martindale, Howland, Barnum and Jones) this was a real Republican party meeting.)
  4. ^ To fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Henry R. Selden, a judge was elected to a six-year term.
