November 14 1878 (PE)

Summary

Notes

• Note: For reasons unknown, the Legislative Council election of 1878 appears to have incited very little interest. Multiple newspapers were consulted, none of which contained information of great value aside from which candidates were ultimately elected. The results for 2nd Queens, 1st Prince, and 2nd Prince are not official numbers; as for the affiliations of the candidates, it’s a mixture of known, unknown, and uncertain.
