Abstract:

Federalism in North Carolina between 1800 and 1816 had greater support than any other state in the South. North Carolina Federalists did not suffer from the same malapportionment, gerrymandering or partisan election laws that plagued other southern states. The party did fail to take advantage of several issues that would have increased their popularity among the populous such as judicial reform, legislator pay and taxation. Instead the Federalist Party remained disorganized and unfocused in their goals.

Abstract:

In the early 1800s, the Supreme Court was held in such low esteem in some parts of the country that the legendary Chief Justice John Marshall was declined tailor service in Raleigh. One of Marshall’s letters written from Raleigh on January 2, 1803, offers an insight into the great man’s ways. Marshall also gives his perspective on several North Carolina Federalists and Supreme Court judges.

Abstract:

From 1790-1815, Federalists and Jeffersonian Republicans were struggling for supremacy in national and state politics. North Carolina's majority population of individualistic farmers claimed to be firmly Republican, a fact which period elections reflected until the election of 1789 when the war with the French changed voting dynamics and the Federalists won congressional seats. This article looks at the elections held every year between 1803 and 1810 to examine how the Republicans regained the political ground lost in the 1789 election.
