The spoiler is a political candidate (sometimes of a third party) who has little to no chance of winning an election but can still decide the fate of an election by taking votes away from other candidates.
A primary election is a public election run by government officials to determine which candidate will represent a political party in a general election. It is a way for party members or registered voters to choose their party's nominee for a specific office. The winning candidate from the primary election will then go on to compete in the general election.
Before election day there are many steps that a candidate must do before the actual election. They must decide to run for office, campaign and then attend the campaign debate.

Every four years, the president of the United States is subject to a presidential election. This is when the nation votes to decide if the president should continue in office for another term or if a new candidate should be elected. If the president wins re-election, they continue their duties for another four-year term.
Clay finished fourth in electoral votes for president and so was eliminated from consideration by the House which had to decide the election since no candidate got a majority. Clay carried three states and was able to get the Congressmen from these states to vote for Adams. ( Why he did so is another story.)
The electors in each state are elected by the popular vote in the presidential election and swear in advance to vote for the presidential candidate who wins the election in their state.
