14th CONGRESS- in General SENATE: 22 Republicans, 12 Federalists, 2 vacancies INDIANA was admitted as the 19th State of the Union on 11 December 1816: as this was well after the end of the odd-numbered year in which the 14th Congress took office [this being 1815], Indiana's 2 Senators are NOT counted among those elected to the Senate of the 14th Congress; neither is Indiana's 1 Congressman counted among those elected to the House of Representatives in that Congress. 14th CONGRESS- United States SENATE The SENATE of the 14th Congress included 2 vacancies, as follows:
Francis Locke, a Republican, was elected by the General Assembly of the State of NORTH CAROLINA to the Class 3 seat (term ending 3 March 1819) from that State vacated by the resignation of Senator David Stone on 24 December 1814, during the preceding Congress: however, Senator-elect Locke never qualified and, therefore, never took his seat in the Senate; his successor, Nathaniel Macon, also a Republican, was elected by the General Assembly of the State on 5 December 1815, before the end of the odd-numbered year in which the 14th Congress took office [this being 1815]. Nevertheless, it is Locke who clearly was the intended Senator-elect for that vacant seat as of the start of the 14th Congress [4 March 1815] and, therefore, he (and not the future Senator Macon) is counted among the 22 Republicans elected to the Senate of that Congress. George W. Campbell, a Republican, was elected by the General Assembly of the State of TENNESSEE to the Class 1 seat (term: 4 March 1815 to 3 March 1821) from that State on 10 October 1815, before the end of the odd-numbered year in which the 14th Congress took office [this being 1815]. Senator Campbell, therefore, is counted among the 22 Republicans elected to the Senate of the 14th Congress, notwithstanding the existence of a vacancy at the start of that Congress [4 March 1815] due to a failure of the legilsature to elect. |
