	Anomalistic History
		Under the new Constitution of 1789, electors were selected for the Electoral College; however, during the 1789 election of Washington, Presidential electors were elected by the people in only five states, and the lack of vote counts and other records makes the reconstruction of the total popular vote impossible.
		Lastly, seven years prior to Washington's 1789 proclamation for Thanksgiving, President Hanson and the United States Congress urged the newly-formed American states to observe Thursday, November 28, 1782 as a Thanksgiving Day.
		The second Constitution of 1789 differed from the Articles in that it called for an electoral count to elect Washington to the office of the President, However, it should be noted that the election process was not initially executed as asserted in the Constitution of 1789.
