| Description |
Date of election speculative. The New York Times reported on 10/1/1853 that campaigning was in full swing. As in the 1851 race, the locals considered the candidates to represent the Mexican and American interest groups, regardless of their official party labels.
Lane contested the election unsuccessfully.
