None of the presidential election candidates received more than half of all electoral votes in 1824. Whenever that happens, the task of electing the President goes to the House of Representatives. They did not elect the person who received the most popular votes AND the most electoral votes. Although their action did not reflect the will of the people, it's perfectly legal. And the same laws are still in effect, so the same thing could happen again the next time we have a VERY strong third party candidate.
