Because Hamilton persuaded people to vote for Jefferson over Burr during the 1800 presidential election.
Aaron Burr
Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr were bitter political rivals. Hamilton thought Burr was dishonest, disreputable and dangerous, which may or may not have been the truth, but was certainly Hamilton's belief. Hamilton developed animosity toward Burr when Burr won election to Congress, beating Alexander Hamilton's father-in-law, Philip Schuyler, who was the incumbent. Hamilton carried a grudge, undermined Burr whenever the opportunity arose, and was determined to ruin Burr's political career. Alexander Hamilton supported Thomas Jefferson because he hated Jefferson slightly less than he hated Burr. When the results of the election were finalized, Hamilton said, "At least Jefferson is honest."
Alexander Hamilton hated democracy, because it was, at the time, known as a horrendous form of government. This is why, technically, America is run as a Constitutional Republic, though the ideals of democracy are still held as important to the people of the nation.
Hamilton was fatally shot by Aaron Burr in a duel. Contrary to popular belief Burr challenged Hamilton to a duel, not the other way around. Burr thought Hamilton to be the sole detriment to his public career. Without Hamilton, he reasoned, he could achieve greatness. On July 11, 1804, he shot Hamilton. Although historians today still argue about what actually happened on the ground, it's clear that Burr's shot, which came with such force that it ricocheted in Hamilton's stomach, splintering a vertebrae, proved mortal. Hamilton died 31 hours later of those injuries, on July 12. Burr was indicted for murder in New Jersey, but the charges were dropped. However Burr would later be charged with treason...but that's another day's story.
Hamilton preferred Federalism, he thought the federal government should have the most power. Hamilton's rival Jefferson, hated federalism and as an anti federalist was a strong supporter of states' rights.

Although Hamilton disliked Jefferson he thought Jeffersons veiws, were better for the country

Because they were experienced in their respective departments. Thomas Jefferson had been a diplomat overseas for quite some time (that was where he'd been during the Constitutional Convention), and was very adept at foreign relations. Alexander Hamilton was a financial genius who had once helped to run a shipping company in the West Indies when he was a teenager. Washington was smart, and he knew that both Jefferson and Hamilton were smart men and it would be a good idea to have their advice. Too bad they hated each other, but that is another story.
