After the protests of Andrew Jackson and his supporters, the caucus system within political parties began to lose influence and ultimately dissolved. The caucus system was a method used by party leaders to nominate candidates for office, but Jackson's popularity and the demand for more democratic processes led to the adoption of nominating conventions instead. This marked a shift towards a more inclusive and participatory approach to selecting candidates.
The national convention system for nominating presidential candidates was developed by the Democratic Party in the early 19th century. This system was established to provide a more formal and inclusive process for selecting candidates, allowing party members from different states to come together and choose their nominee. The convention system has since been adopted by other political parties in the United States.
