John Quincy Adams was elected by the House of Representatives in February, 1825 and so took office on March 4. No one got a majority of the electoral vote, so the House had to make the decision. Henry Clay made his famous "corrupt bargain" as Andrew Jackson's supporters called it and swung his votes to Adams. Clay was soon appointed Secretary-of-State by Adams, which position in those days was a stepping stone to becoming President. Adams actually came in second to Jackson in both popular and electoral votes but still became President.
