Decision Against the Lincoln Party in Lackawanna County
The Lincoln party certificates of nomination for Lackawanna County were rejected by State Officials.

Berry for State Treasurer received 472 votes, below the threshold. The party had previously nominated Thomas H. Date and other Republican candidates in the county.
