Talk:Mitchell (UK Parliament constituency)

The number of electors in 1784
A total of 84 votes were cast in the 1784 election indicating that at least 42 people voted - on petition (see note 6 under Members of Parliament sub heading) four people were deemed not to be qualified to vote on one person who whose votes had been rejected was deemed qualified.

Thirty years earlier a total of 110 votes were cast - indicating there were at least 55 electors. On petition the election result was over turned which suggests the House of Commons decided some electors were unqualified.
