The election of 1824, not 1812, was the one in which John Quincy Adams was declared the winner. The decision was ultimately made by the House of Representatives after no candidate secured a majority of electoral votes. Henry Clay, a key figure and Speaker of the House, supported Adams, which helped him win the presidency despite Andrew Jackson having received more popular and electoral votes. This controversial outcome led to accusations of a "corrupt bargain" between Adams and Clay.
