From 1789-1800, there was not a separate election for the vice president. All candidates for president and vice president were on the same ballot. Each elector cast two votes. Whoever had the second-highest number of votes became the vice president.

In the U. S. Presidential election of 1789, 69 electors cast their votes as follows:

  • George Washington - 69 votes
  • John Adams - 34 votes
  • John Jay - 9 votes
  • Robert H. Harrison - 6 votes
  • John Rutledge - 6 votes
  • John Hancock - 4 votes
  • George Clinton - 3 votes
  • Samuel Huntington - 2 votes
  • John Milton - 2 votes
  • James Armstrong - 1 vote
  • Edward Telfair - 1 vote
  • Benjamin Lincoln - 1 vote
