Question

英文翻译（英译汉）

At that time there was but a single tally, with the candidate receiving the largest number electoral votes decleared President and the candidate with the second largest number decleared Vice-Present, Hamilton anticipated that all the Federalists in the North would vote for Adams and Pinchney equally in an attempt to ensure that Jefferson would not be either first or second in the voting.
对but那个词不是太理解，请高人指点，谢谢。最好翻译一下整句
decleared应为declared 不好意思打错了，谢谢 baihehanfei的google版
