Answer
This isn't really a joke, That's the actual number of votes Washington got. You see, at that time, there was no popular vote for president, only the votes of the electoral college, which was made up of representatives from each state. The 69 votes Washington received, however, represented one vote from each elector - thereby making George Washington the only president in history to have been unanimously elected.
