The 1824 New Hampshire gubernatorial election was held on 9 March 1824 in order to elect the Governor of New Hampshire. Former Democratic-Republican United States Senator from New Hampshire David L. Morril defeated incumbent Democratic-Republican Governor Levi Woodbury and former Federalist Governor Jeremiah Smith. Since no candidate received a majority in the popular vote, Morril was elected by the New Hampshire General Court per the state constitution. [1]
On election day, 9 March 1824, Democratic-Republican candidate David L. Morril won the popular vote by a margin of 3,244 votes against his foremost opponent and incumbent Democratic-Republican Governor Levi Woodbury. But since no candidate received a majority of the popular vote, a separate election was held by the New Hampshire General Court, which chose Morril as the winner, thereby retaining Democratic-Republican control over the office of Governor. Morril was sworn in as the 10th Governor of New Hampshire on 2 June 1824. [2]

The 1912–13 United States Senate elections were held on various dates in various states. They were the last U.S. Senate elections before the ratification of the Seventeenth Amendment in 1913, establishing direct elections for all Senate seats. Senators had been primarily chosen by state legislatures. Senators were elected over a wide range of time throughout 1912 and 1913, and a seat may have been filled months late or remained vacant due to legislative deadlock. Some states elected their senators directly even before passage of Seventeenth Amendment. Oregon pioneered direct election and experimented with different measures over several years until it succeeded in 1907. Soon after, Nebraska followed suit and laid the foundation for other states to adopt measures reflecting the people's will. By 1912, as many as 29 states elected senators either as nominees of their party's primary or in conjunction with a general election.
The Pennsylvania Republican Party (PAGOP) is the affiliate of the Republican Party in the state of Pennsylvania. It is headquartered in Harrisburg.
