1816 United States presidential election in Massachusetts

A presidential election was held in Massachusetts on November 12, 1816 as part of the 1816 United States presidential election. The senior U.S. senator from New York Rufus King, the de facto candidate of the Federalist Party, received 22 votes from electors chosen by the Massachusetts General Court. Although commonly remembered as the last Federalist presidential candidate, King was not formally selected as the party's nominee and had no designated running mate; the Massachusetts electors voted for the former U.S. senator from Maryland John Eager Howard for vice president. This was the last election in which the District of Maine participated as part of Massachusetts.
