Assemblymen were elected countywide on general tickets to a one-year term, the whole assembly being renewed annually.In 1797, Albany was declared the State capital, and all subsequent Legislatures have been meeting there ever since. In 1799, the Legislature enacted that future Legislatures meet on the last Tuesday of January of each year unless called earlier by the governor.
