In the U.S. presidential election of 1789,...in New Hampshire, Pennsylvania and Maryland, every elector was chosen by statewide popular vote.Delaware and Virginia were divided into a number of electoral districts equal to the number of electors, and each district elected one elector by popular vote.in each congressional district in Massachusetts, the voters voted for their choices of electors, then the state legislature chose one from the top two from each district's election. Since there are always two more electors than congressional districts, the state legislature appointed the other two electors by themselves.in Connecticut, New Jersey, South Carolina and Georgia, the state legislatures chose every elector. New York tried also to use this method, but because they could not come to a consensus New York ended up appointing no electors.only the states that had ratified the new Constitution were allowed to appoint electors. Rhode Island and North Carolina had not yet done so at that time.
