rhnsen Twice
Th House twice has chosen the
president, in 1801 and in 1825.
In 1876 a commission created
. .. cslnnal act voted 8-to-7
to credit the contested electoral
votes of Soutn uarouna, riuoua,
r,,nn and Louisiana to Ruther
ford B. Hayes, a Republican. He
thus was seated over Samuel J.
Tilden, a Democrat.
In the first strictly House test
Thomas Jefferson of Virginia was
elected over Aaron Burr of New
York. Both were Democrats ai3
in the popular election each won
73 electoral votes. It took the
davs and 36 ballots
aottla on Jefferson. Vermont
and Maryland finally swung to
him after being evenly divided
and passing numerous times.
Burr became vice-president.
Didn't Get There
In 1825 the man with the elec
toral votes didn't become presi
dent.
Andrew Jackson of Tennessee
got 99 electoral votes; John
Quincy Adams of Massachusetts
84; William H. Crawford of
Georgia 41, and Henry Clay of
jority.
Adams won with 13 votp In tv,
House to seven for Jackson and
four for Crawford. There were
only 24 states then.
Jackson ran again four years
later and won. In 1832 he yv.
elected.
Johnson Elected
The Senate elected Richard M.
Johnson of Kentucky, Martin
ya" Buren's running mate in
1837, the only time it ever was
called upon to choose a vice-president.
There were four vice-presidential
and five presidential candi
dates that year.
Dlxiecrats claim their presi
dential candidate, Gov. Strom
Thurmond of South Carolina, and
his running mate, Gov. Fielding
Wright of Mississippi, are cer
tain to get the electoral votes of
Alabama (11), Arkansas (9),
Florida (8), Georgia (12), Louisi
ana 10), Mississippi (9), South
Carolina (8) and Texas (23).
'High Hopes'
.They say they have "high
hopes" of capturing Kentucky
(11), Maryland (8), North Caro
lina (14), Tennessee (12) and Vir
ginia (11).
If the 156 electoral votes of
these 13 states had been taken
away from the late President
Roosevelt and his vice-presiden
tial candidate, Harry S. Truman,
in 1944 they still would have won
with 276.
