The decision of the aggregate votes cast for a President is the
greatest and most important act relating to every such election. How
shall it be done? How shall the result be peacefully and justly
decided? How shall the votes be counted? Upon the satisfactory
solution of this question hangs the existence of the Government. In
these pages the reader will find all that has been proposed or said in
Congress on the subject, together with the entire official action of
Congress in counting the votes at every previous presidential
election.
All the congressional debates on this subject are printed verbatim
from the reports in "The Annals of Congress," "Congressional Globe,"
and "Congressional Record," and in every case the pages of the
original work are given.
