This is a difficult question to answer. When the United States came into being, the first democratically elected President was Thomas Jefferson of the Democratic-Republican Party in 1804. There was a confederacy that was the first democratic institution in what became the United States in the late 15th to early 16th century but I could not find information whether there were democratic elections. The confederacy I am speaking of are the Iroquois. Dekanawidah was the author of the "Great Laws of the Iroquois." This was in use from 1450-1525. The five nations are Mohawks, Oneidas, Onondagas, Cayugas, and Senecas; all in what is now New York State. The only votes that I see that took place, was to include a clam member into the "Council of Chiefs" voted on by the Chiefs themselves, or if there was a matter do be dealt within a clan, then the Chiefs would allow a vote by the people of that clan to determine resolution.
