How did the election if 1800 change all presidential elections to come?

Answer 1

It lead to the creation of the Twelfth Amendment, which addresses the issue of choosing the Vice President. The protocol prior to this election was that the Presidential candidate with the most votes would win the office of President, and the second-place candidate would be awarded the office of Vice President. However, this system became flawed in 1800, and it became clear that this could not be a permanent system. The Twelfth Amendment was written in order to solve that problem.

Answer 2

The electoral process changed in a few significant ways: (1) party nominations were taken for the presidency and vice presidency.

(2) the nomination of candidates for presidential electors pledged to vote for their party's presidential ticket.

(3) the automatic casting of the electoral votes in line with those pledges.

Answer 3

The most significant effect of the 1800 election was the passage of the 12th Amendment to fix the problem of tied electoral college votes. Because the offices of President and Vice President were not listed separately on the ballot, the running mates ended up tying for the office of the President.

Answer 6

According to the prevailing rules of electoral college voting at that time, electors cast votes for two persons. Electors could not distinguish between their presidential and vice-presidential choices until the passage of the Twelfth Amendment to the United States Constitution in 1804. Responding to the problems from the 1796 and 1800 elections, in 1803 Congress proposed the Twelfth Amendment to the United States Constitution - prescribing electors cast separate ballots for president and vice president - to replace the system outlined in Article II, Section 1, Clause 3 of the United States Constitution. By June 1804, the states had ratified the amendment in time for the 1804 election.
