how did I lose? The country was on my side and who even is this guy?
he really thinks he can win, just watch out Jefferson!
The Republicans had voted for Aaron and Jefferson and now there had been a tie. When there is 2 votes both of the candidates is gonna be a tie but they choose Burr and Jefferson.
each state has one vote and which voted in 36 ties which them Alexander Hamlition had to break the tie and step in to elect the president.
We have to break this tie now! This cannot go on any longer. I will have my followers vote for Jefferson. He is not such a dangerous man.
But Adams and Charles were already out of the race for the candidates. The vote was tied with Jefferson and Burr.
Alexander Hamlition wanted the Federalists to vote for Charles Pickeny over John Adams because he didn't support his ally with France.
if the candidate for the president doesn't have majority of the votes, the house chooses the president
if no candidate for the vice president has majority of votes, the senate chooses the vice president.
the 12th amendment was added to the constitution in 1804 saying that there must be separate ballots for Vice President and President
