If you are asking about Jefferson he was elected by the majority of congress. This was the same way Washington and Adams were made president. There were no elections like we have today. No popular vote and people couldn't vote for president instead they were selected by the members of congress. The man with the most votes became president and the man with the second most votes was vice president.
