Initially, these hopes were pinned upon Vice President George Clinton, but his poor health and advanced age of 72 eliminated his chances. Even before Clinton's death on April 20, 1812, his nephew New York Lieutenant Governor <a href="/wiki/DeWitt_Clinton" title="DeWitt Clinton">DeWitt Clinton</a> was considered the preferred candidate to move against Madison by the northern Democratic-Republicans. </p><p>Hoping to forestall a serious movement against President <a href="/wiki/James_Madison" title="James Madison">James Madison</a> and a division of the Democratic-Republican Party, some proposed making DeWitt Clinton the nominee for the vice presidency, taking over the same office his uncle now held. DeWitt Clinton was not opposed to the offer, but preferred to wait until after the conclusion of the New York caucus, which would not be held until after the congressional caucus had met, to finalize his decision. Early caucuses were held in the states of Virginia and Pennsylvania, both of which pledged their support to Madison. </p><p>Eighty-three of the one hundred thirty-eight of the Democratic-Republican members of the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Congress" title="United States Congress">United States Congress</a> attended the nominating caucus in May 1812. The delegations from New York and New England had less representation due to the New York members supporting <a href="/wiki/DeWitt_Clinton" title="DeWitt Clinton">DeWitt Clinton</a>'s attempt to gain the support of the Federalists and the New England members opposing Madison's foreign policy. Eighty-two of the delegates voted to give the presidential nomination to Madison while <a href="/wiki/John_Langdon_(politician)" title="John Langdon (politician)">John Langdon</a> won the vice-presidential nomination against <a href="/wiki/Elbridge_Gerry" title="Elbridge Gerry">Elbridge Gerry</a> by a vote of sixty-four to sixteen.

The matter of how to conduct his campaign also became a major problem for Clinton, especially with regards to the war with the British after June 12. Many of Clinton's supporters were war-hawks who advocated extreme measures to force the British into negotiations favorable to the United States, while Clinton knew he would have to appeal to Federalists to win, and they were almost wholly opposed to the war.<sup id="cite_ref-Schlesinger_8-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Schlesinger-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <table class="wikitable" style="text-align:left"> <caption>First Caucus Balloting </caption> <tbody><tr> <th>Presidential Ballot </th> <th> </th> <th>Vice Presidential Ballot </th> <th> </th></tr> <tr> <th><a href="/wiki/James_Madison" title="James Madison">James Madison</a> </th> <th>81 </th> <th><a href="/wiki/John_Langdon_(politician)" title="John Langdon (politician)">John Langdon</a> </th> <th>64 </th></tr> <tr> <th>Abstaining </th> <th>1 </th> <th><a href="/wiki/Elbridge_Gerry" title="Elbridge Gerry">Elbridge Gerry</a> </th> <th>16 </th></tr> <tr> <th> </th> <th> </th> <th>Scattering </th> <th>2 </th></tr></tbody></table> <table class="wikitable" style="text-align:left"> <caption>Second Caucus Balloting </caption> <tbody><tr> <th>Vice Presidential Ballot </th></tr> <tr> <th><a href="/wiki/Elbridge_Gerry" title="Elbridge Gerry">Elbridge Gerry</a> </th> <th>74 </th></tr> <tr> <th>Scattering </th> <th>3 </th></tr></tbody></table> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Federalist_nomination">Federalist nomination</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=1812_United_States_presidential_election&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Federalist nomination"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <table class="wikitable" style="font-size:90%;

But with Clinton in the race, the Federalists would no longer be able to count on the electoral votes of New York, possibly throwing the election into the <a href="/wiki/United_States_House_of_Representatives" title="United States House of Representatives">House of Representatives</a>, dominated by Democratic-Republicans, where Madison would almost certainly be elected. </p><p>In the face of these facts, the Federalist party considered endorsing Clinton's candidacy for a time, but at their caucus in September it was decided that the party simply would not field a presidential candidate that year and did not endorse Clinton. Though there was much support among the Federalists for Clinton, it was felt that openly endorsing him as the party's choice for president would damage his chances in states where the Federalists remained unpopular and drive away Democratic-Republicans who would normally be supportive of his candidacy. A Federalist caucus in Pennsylvania chose to nominate <a href="/wiki/Jared_Ingersoll" title="Jared Ingersoll">Jared Ingersoll</a>, the Attorney General of the state, as Clinton's vice presidential running-mate, a move Clinton decided to support considering the importance of Pennsylvania's electors.<sup id="cite_ref-Schlesinger_8-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Schlesinger-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Straight-Federalist_nomination">Straight-Federalist nomination</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=1812_United_States_presidential_election&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Straight-Federalist nomination"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <table class="wikitable" style="font-size:90%; text-align:center;"> <tbody><tr> <td style="background:#f1f1f1;" colspan="30"><figure class="mw-halign-center" typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/Federalist_Party" title="Federalist Party"><img alt="Federalist Party" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/59/Federalist_Cockade.svg/65px-Federalist_Cockade.svg.png" decoding="async" width="65" height="65" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/59/Federalist_Cockade.svg/98px-Federalist_Cockade.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/59/Federalist_Cockade.svg/130px-Federalist_Cockade.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="722" data-file-height="722" /></a><figcaption>Federalist Party</figcaption></figure><big><b>1812 Straight-Federalist Party Ticket</b></big> </td></tr> <tr> <th style="width:3em; font-size:135%; background:#FF7F50; width:200px;"><a href="/wiki/Rufus_King" title="Rufus King"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1239334494" /><span class="tmp-color" style="color:black">Rufus King</span></a> </th> <th style="width:3em; font-size:135%; background:#FF7F50; width:200px;"><a href="/wiki/William_Richardson_Davie" title="William Richardson Davie"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1239334494" /><span class="tmp-color" style="color:black">William R.

The actual presidential candidates were rarely mentioned on tickets and voters were voting for particular electors who were pledged to a particular candidate. There was sometimes confusion as to who the particular elector was actually pledged to. Results are reported as the highest result for an elector for any given candidate. For example, if three Madison electors received 100, 50, and 25 votes, Madison would be recorded as having 100 votes. Confusion surrounding the way results are reported may lead to discrepancies between the sum of all state results and national results. </p><p>Returns below are from A New Nation Votes.
