The twealfth amendment
The Twelfth Amendment was passed. It changed the way presidents are elected. It was no longer the first place votes would be President and second place would be VP.
12th amendment
The direct consequence of the election of 1800 was the amendment to the constitution that stipulated separate electoral college balance for president and vice president. It was the 12th amendment to be added to the constitution.
This amendment was prompted by the election of 1800 and the problems occurring in the election of President Thomas Jefferson and his running mate Aaron Burr.
During the election of 1800 Jefferson and Burr were tied after the Electoral College completed the vote count. This occurred because there was no clear way of identifying the winner for the presidential vote and the winner of the vice president vote. This lead to the passage of the 12th Amendment in 1804.
The Twelfth Amendment (Amendment XII) to the United States Constitution provides the procedure by which the President and Vice President are elected.

The purposse of the was ..made the 12 amendment which gave ballot to president and vice president that's all
The Presidential Election of 1800 ended in a tie in the Electoral College. This sent the election to the House of Representatives where politics took over. Even though that election was salvaged, it was obvious that new rules were needed to prevent this happening again.
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.
It was the first transfer of power that didn't involve bloodshed. (Federalist to Republicans) It marked the end of the federalist party and the begining of the Republican. yay apush
