Andrew Jackson easily won the 1828 presidential election. He won both the popular vote and a majority of electoral votes which allowed him to easily take the lead. The reason he gained so many votes was because he was extremely tough. Jackson was nicknamed "Old Hickory" because of his toughness and aggressive personality. After winning the 1828 election he won the following election using the same old tactics.
