WHAT?
Jackson secured victory for several reasons. Adams presidency proved to be unpopular. In addition, Jackson appealed to more common voters with his position as both a war hero and staunch opponent of the federal government influence.
Andrew Jackson would win a major victory in the presidential Election of 1828. With support of a much larger voting contingent, and 70% of the electoral votes, Jackson redeems what he considered a 'corrupt bargain' in the previous Election of 1824.
The Election of 1828 was much anticipated. Adams had left the presidency unpopular in many of his policies. Jackson, armed with an image catering to the 'common man', secured a strong victory, leading to what will become a 'Jacksonian Democracy'.
