In the 1804 New York gubernatorial election, Aaron Burr faced strong opposition from his former ally, George Clinton, who was the incumbent governor at the time. Burr's campaign was marred by political rivalries and controversies, leading to a lack of support from key political factions. Ultimately, Burr lost the election decisively, which significantly weakened his political career and influence.
When President Thomas Jefferson chose George Clinton as a running mate in 1804 rather than Aaron Burr, Burr sought Clinton's office of Governor of New York. He was opposed by Morgan Lewis. During the campaign, Burr killed Alexander Hamilton in a duel.

Aaron Burr challenged Alexander Hamilton to a duel primarily due to a longstanding personal and political rivalry. The immediate catalyst was Hamilton's derogatory remarks about Burr during the 1804 election campaign for governor of New York, which Burr found deeply insulting. Feeling that his honor was at stake, Burr sought to defend it through the duel, which ultimately resulted in Hamilton's death.
