Delaware cast three electoral votes for the Federalist candidate Charles C. Pinckney over the Democratic-Republican candidate and incumbent President Thomas Jefferson. These electors were elected by the Delaware General Assembly, the state legislature, rather than by popular vote. The three electoral votes for Vice president were cast for Pinckney's running mate Rufus King from New York.[1]
