NO! John Adams had lost the re-election in 1800 to Thomas Jefferson. Unlike George Washington who was able to run and was re-elected for a second term.
After George Washington refused to run for a 3rd term John Adams followed him as president defeating Thomas Jefferson. Jefferson, coming in 2nd in the voting thus became Adams Vice President. This would be the last time that the runner-up served as Vice President.
