The 1816 United States presidential election in Pennsylvania took place as part of the 1816 United States presidential election. Voters chose 25 representatives, or electors to the Electoral College,[1] who voted for President and Vice President.

The Federalists in Pennsylvania supported electors pledged to the Democratic-Republican candidate James Monroe, while opposition came from an Independent ticket of unpledged electors. Apparently, these elector candidates "would probably have supported either William Crawford or Rufus King."[2]
