shinmeikai, oukoku, and iwakoku do not have this as [vs].

[vs]:    daijr/s
[vs,vt]: meikyo

daijr/s and meikyo don't mention our second sense. I think it's safe to remove [vs] from both of these senses.

Most of the counts for this word come from 新選組.
The only examples I can find of sense 1 are book titles. The only example I can find of sense 2 is in Saito: "新選議員 a new M.P". Nothing in Google news. I presume it's obsolete.
