Confederate electoral ticket for Jefferson Davis of Mississippi and Alexander H. Stephens of Georgia. Choice extremely fine. A pleasing, 3-1/4" x 5" clean looking example of this scarce Confederate election ticket. This rare document features Davis and Stephens for President and Vice-President of the Confederacy and includes a list of electors for 16 districts and two at-large electors. Black print on white paper. Verso has an actual light signature of the Southern voter who cast this ballot. The Confederate States presidential election of November 6, 1861 was the only presidential election held under the Permanent Constitution of the Confederate States of America. Jefferson Davis, who had been elected president and Alexander H. Stephens, who had been elected vice president, under the Provisional Constitution, were elected to six-year terms (February 22, 1862 - February 22, 1868) as the Confederate States' first permanent president and vice president.
