If Washington has refused to be president, bast guess is that John Adams who finished second in the first election would have won the first election.
he didnt run for president
only if that president didnt serve his 2 terms already he can work one term and then after awhile run for another term
in 1772
For President.
George Washington never ran for president. Americans loved him so after he won the Revolution, they just MADE him president. The electors went to wherever electors went back then and voted, unanimously, for Washington for president. But thinking about it...if Washington would have had to run for president, he would have represented Virginia since that's where he lived.
He did not run, he was selected to be the first candidate.
feb 04 1789

He wanted to retire.
i'm not really sure but I think he did not run for president he was a good leader in a war so most of the people thought he would be a really good president so the made him president.

No, George Washington ran unopposed in both of his presidential elections.
