Background

[edit]

Under the provisions of theNew York Constitution of 1846, 32 Senators and 128 assemblymen were elected in single-seat districts; senators for a two-year term, assemblymen for a one-year term. The senatorial districts were made up of entire counties, except New York County (seven districts) and Kings County (three districts). The Assembly districts were made up of entire towns, or city wards,[1] forming a contiguous area, all within the same county.

At this time there were two major political parties: theDemocratic Party and theRepublican Party. InNew York City the Democrats were split into three factions:Tammany Hall, "Irving Hall" and the "County Democrats". TheProhibition Party and theGreenback Party also nominated tickets.

Elections

The1882 New York state election was held on November 7. DemocratsGrover Cleveland andDavid B. Hill were elected Governor and Lieutenant Governor. The other two statewide elective offices up for election were also carried by the Democrats. The approximate party strength at this election, as expressed by the vote for Governor, was: Democratic 535,000; Republican 342,000; Prohibition 26,000; and Greenback 12,000.
