Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book documents the contested-election case between J.E. Campbell and H.L. Morey for the US Congress seat representing the 7th Congressional District of Ohio, brought before the House of Representatives in 1883. The document in question consists of the notice of contest brought by Campbell against Morey, and Morey's response. Campbell claimed Morey had been fraudulently declared the winner following the election of October 1882, outlining several alleged forms of electoral fraud including illegal votes, errors by election officers, and intimidation of voters supporting Campbell. Morey denied Campbell's claims and accused him of improperly filing the election contest. This book provides a valuable historical record of the electoral process and contestation in the United States during the late 19th century.
