3 1820 The collapse of the Federalist party and the dominance of the Democratic Republicans makes party identification difficult during the early 1820s. While a few old Federalists continue to run, they often do so without party label. Phineas White, for example, is apparently elected without a party label. On the other hand, the Democratic Republican label becomes so inclusive as to be meaningless in determining political stance. Political perspective of particular candidates is suggested by their later political affiliation with Whigs, Democrats, and, eventually, Republicans. First District Rollin C. Mallary 1, % Orsamus C.
