NEW YORK SPECTATOR, Feb. 22, 1817 

* President James Monroe
* Presidential election win


The back page has a full column of reporting from "Congress" concerning the formalities of counting votes for President & V.P., ending with a state-by-state chart showing the result, and then: "The president of the Senate then declared JAMES MONROE, of Virginia, to be duly elected President of the United States, and DANIEL D. TOMPKINS, of New  York, duly elected Vice President..." (see).
Four pages, never-trimmed margins, nice condition.
