Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr each received an equal number of votes in the Electoral College, which meant that the Federalist-dominated House of Representatives was required to choose a president from between the two

Alexander Hamilton swallowed hard and campaigned for Jefferson, with whom he disagreed on most issues and whom he personally disliked, because he believed Burr to be "a most unfit and dangerous man."

JEFFERSON'S FIRST TERMAdams was so upset about the election that he left the capital before Jefferson took office

Before he left town, however, he made a number of "midnight appointments," filling as many government positions with Federalists as he could

Jefferson's response was to refuse to recognize those appointmentsUpon taking office, Jefferson also immediately pardoned all those convicted under the Alien and Sedition Acts, then persuaded Congress, now controlled by his party, to repeal the laws
![Page 100: THE LATE EIGHTEENTH AND EARLY NINETEENTH ...toolbox1.s3-website-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/site_0710/...Declaration of Independence was signed, states began writing their own constitutions](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062506/5fbc0eeb44672c249a36cd71/html5/thumbnails/100.jpg)
Jefferson's refusal to accept Adams' midnight appointments resulted in a number of lawsuits
Marbury v. Madison, reached the Supreme Court in 1803
![Page 101: THE LATE EIGHTEENTH AND EARLY NINETEENTH ...toolbox1.s3-website-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/site_0710/...Declaration of Independence was signed, states began writing their own constitutions](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062506/5fbc0eeb44672c249a36cd71/html5/thumbnails/101.jpg)
William Marbury, one of Adams' last-minute appointees, had sued Secretary of State James Madison for refusing to certify his appointment to the federal bench
![Page 102: THE LATE EIGHTEENTH AND EARLY NINETEENTH ...toolbox1.s3-website-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/site_0710/...Declaration of Independence was signed, states began writing their own constitutions](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062506/5fbc0eeb44672c249a36cd71/html5/thumbnails/102.jpg)
Chief Justice John Marshall was a FederalistMarshall was not certain that the court could force Jefferson to accept Marbury's appointment

Court ruled that Marbury did indeed have a right to his judgeship, but that the court could not enforce his rightAlthough the power to do so had been granted to the Supreme Court in the Judiciary Act of 1789, Marshall now declared it unconstitutional

Congressional caucuses had chosen their parties' nominee in earlier elections
With more people voting directly for electors, however, the caucus nominee was no longer guaranteed to represent his party

But none of the four had won a majority, so …….the election was decided in the House of Representatives
![Page 147: THE LATE EIGHTEENTH AND EARLY NINETEENTH ...toolbox1.s3-website-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/site_0710/...Declaration of Independence was signed, states began writing their own constitutions](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062506/5fbc0eeb44672c249a36cd71/html5/thumbnails/147.jpg)
Clay threw his support to Adams, thereby handing Adams the victory… and Clay was named Secretary of State (importance of this ..)

Adams was also handicapped with an obnoxious personality
(It ran in the Family)

His effort to strengthen the central government was thus viewed with deep suspicion
Jackson's supporters strongly favored
states' rights
