 WHAT ARE THEY ALL DOING, ANYWAY? an historical analysis of the Electoral College
New Jersey and North Carolina were the next to abandon popular vote for legislative choice of Electors for 1812: the new State of Louisiana also used legislative choice; however, Massachusetts had returned to election of Presidential Electors by popular vote per district for that election.
Maryland and Pennsylvania retained their statewide "General Ticket" popular vote and Virginia its popular vote of 1 elector chosen by each district, which was the system also used by the new Commonwealth of Kentucky (which had so recently been part of Virginia).
New Hampshire went for the "General Ticket" system without its earlier legislative choice in case of a failure to elect via a majority: instead, if not enough electors were chosen by majority vote, the Granite State would hold a "runoff" involving the top vote-getters not elected up to twice the number of electors still needed.
