- Maybe the national nominating convention...
Jackson's supporters abandoned the unpopular caucus system and they replaced it with nominating convention.
The convention replaced the caucus as the primary nominating method due to several factors, including the desire for greater transparency and inclusivity in the political process. The caucus system often favored party elites and limited participation, while conventions allowed for broader voter engagement and representation. Additionally, the rise of the Progressive movement in the early 20th century advocated for reforms that promoted direct democracy and reduced the influence of political machines, leading to the adoption of conventions as a more democratic approach to candidate selection.

The decline of the caucus system for nominating candidates was significantly influenced by the 1968 Democratic National Convention. Widespread protests and a perceived lack of transparency in the caucus process led to public disillusionment. In response, many states began to shift towards primaries, which allowed for broader voter participation and more democratic processes in candidate selection. This transition was solidified by reforms in party rules aimed at increasing inclusivity and accountability.
