Oregon Electors Certify Cronin Over Watts Amid Electoral Controversy
Governor Grover explains issuing certificates to Oregon electors because Watts was disqualified as postmaster and Cronin, the next eligible candidate, was certified. The Oregon vote yields Tilden and Hendricks with 185 to Hayes, while questions linger on Congress power to review state returns and potential retrials in Louisiana Florida and South Carolina. The piece notes legal debates, court actions, and the Cremation ceremony of Baron DePalm in Washington.
