Test Questions for Ballot Voters in 1840s Madisonian
The Madisonian urges voters to judge candidates by principle not personalities. It presents questions on executive revenue control, army size, labor wages, public spending, currency reform, and free speech. It also cites Col Richard M. Johnson and banking disputes, urging readers to examine anti Bank Democrat actions before voting for Van Buren or Harrison.

Curious moves and partisan blows ahead of the election
A New Jersey Sentinel writer warns of a plan to spread false reports that Gen Harrison is dead and to suppress Whig papers in post offices, while critics doubt such tactics would occur. Other editorials note Van Buren’s weak standing and regional Whig hopes, with scattered references to reactions in South Carolina and Tennessee.
