Something I was thinking about recently, since RI was the last to ratify, not doing so until 1790.  It would have had no affect on the 1792 election, as Adams was 27 electoral votes ahead of Clinton.

Is there any chance RI would have held out on ratification that long though?

I don't know, but the possibility of Rhode Island Independence is something that interests me.
