unlike the objections which would be made in 1877, these did not affect the outcome of the election. This election was the last in which Arkansas voted for a Republican until 1972, and the last in which it voted against the Democrats until 1968. Alabama and Mississippi would not be carried by a Republican again until 1964, and they would not vote against the Democrats until 1948. North Carolina and Virginia would not vote Republican again until 1928. West Virginia, Delaware and New Jersey would not vote Republican again until 1896. Table of results Source (popular vote): Dave Leip's Atlas of U.S. Presidential Elections Retrieved on November 3, 2022 Source (electoral vote): (a) These candidates received votes from Electors who were pledged to Horace Greeley, who died before the electoral votes were cast. (b) Brown's vice-presidential votes were counted, but the presidential votes for Horace Greeley were rejected since he was ineligible for the office of President due to his death. (c) See Breakdown by ticket below. (d) The 14 electoral votes from Arkansas and Louisiana were rejected. Had they not been rejected, Grant would have received 300 electoral votes out of a total of 366, well in excess of the 184 required to win, and he would have became the first candidate to receive over 300 electoral votes.
