New York's 12 electors each cast one vote for incumbent George Washington and one vote for George Clinton in the state's first presidential election.[2] (Although the state had ratified the Constitution to become the eleventh state on July 26, 1788, it did not participate in the first presidential election in 1789 due to the state legislature's being deadlocked.)
