It is customary to say that the first Presidential election was in 1789 and that George Washington won.
However, the actual first Presidential election was in 1774, and was when the members of the Continental Congress voted Peyton Randolph as President.
While that was more a role of a presiding officer, the title was President, and it was by an election. As was also the case with at least 10 other men who held that office, including John Hancock.
