16 Ellmaker E(4+6+8) K(2)
-1 Hendricks K(2)
6 Iredell E(4+2)
-2 Smith E(4) K(3+3)
12 Sparkman E(6+6)
-3 Weaver K(3)

Safety:

2 Fairbanks
1 Iredell

Results:
Voters in this round decided to be quite peaceable and not make any ell. Amos Ellmaker, the Anti-Masonic Vice Presidential candidate in 1832 is eliminated first.  His Congressional record is curious.  Elected to the 16th Congress from the 3rd district of Pennsylvania, he never took his seat, choosing to accept a State judgeship instead before the 1st session of the 16th Congress.  Then in 1834, he came second to James Buchanan for a Senate seat from Pennsylvania.  I think there's a what-if lurking there.  What isn't lurking are images of Amos Ellmaker.  Wikipedia doesn't have one.  Another site tried to foist off a picture of Richard Rush as Amos.  I was able to find two pictures that almost certainly are of an Amos Ellmaker, but I'm not certain that it is this Amos Ellmaker.

Senator John Sparkman of Alabama is your second choice to be eliminated.  The running mate of Adlai Stevenson II in 1952, he received not even one delegate's vote when, in an experiment not repeated since, Stevenson threw the choice of a running mate to the convention.

Votes:
12 Iredell E(8+10) K(3+3)
5 Langdon E(2+3)
11 Smith E(10+7) K(3+3)

Safety:
2 Fairbanks
1 Garner
1 Hendricks

Results:
You have adjudged that Associate Justice James Iredell of North Carolina is to be the first to depart this round.  He was the last of original six justices of the Supreme Court to be appointed, as the sixth seat had been held vacant so as to await the admission of North Carolina to the Union.
Alfred E. Smith of New York also departs.  He is the first Catholic to be nominated for President by a major party, but not the first to be eliminated from this survivor.  Personally, I am Mad at him.  Not for anything he did politically, but because as president of Empire State Inc., he was instrumental in the construction of the ugly Empire State Building that displaced the much more graceful Chrysler Building as the tallest skyscraper.

The seven members who have survived their experience in the Aries tribe to merge into the Spring tribe are:

Henry Davis [6 safety points, VP (1904)]
Charles Fairbanks [7 safety points, VP (1904, 1916)]
James Garfield [3 safety points, P (1880)]
John Nance Garner [3 safety points, VP (1932, 1936)]
Thomas Hendricks [5 safety points, P (1872), VP (1876, 1884)]
John Langdon [1 safety point, VP (1808)]
James Weaver [7 safety points, P (1892)]
