Stаge 5 — The Electiоn оf 1824 аnd the “Cоrrupt Bаrgain” The presidential election of 1824 shattered the illusion of unity left over from the “Era of Good Feelings.” With the Federalists gone, the Democratic-Republican Party splintered as four candidates—Andrew Jackson, John Quincy Adams, William Crawford, and Henry Clay—each claimed the right to lead the nation. Jackson won the popular vote but failed to secure an electoral majority, sending the decision to the House of Representatives. When Speaker Henry Clay backed Adams, handing him the presidency, furious Jacksonians cried “corrupt bargain,” claiming a secret deal had cheated the people’s choice. This bitter dispute ignited a new era of partisan politics, splitting the old Democratic-Republicans into rival factions that would evolve into the Democrats and the National Republicans, setting the stage for modern political party competition. Event/Development: Fragmentation of the Democratic-Republicans In 1824, four candidates from the same party competed for the presidency. Jackson won the popular vote but lacked an electoral majority; the House selected John Quincy Adams after an alleged “corrupt bargain” with Henry Clay. Jackson’s supporters formed the Democratic Party, while Adams and Clay’s followers became the National Republicans. Student Questions: This is a written response question.
