The campaign of 1828 was unlike any other that had come before it. For the first time electors in most states were chosen by popular vote. The electorate had been expanded so that there was universal suffrage among white males.
Suppose you had lived during the time period of the 1828 election. Would you have voted for Andrew Jackson? Write a 2-3 sentence explanition

I would have voted for Andrew Jackson for many reasons, one being that he paid off all the debt that America had in 1834. He is an honest man and keeps his word, to the things he says he will do. He also defended New Orleans from British invasion. These are just some reasons why he should be voted for.

I would have not voted for Andrew Jackson. Women's suffrage was later on but I would not be content that voting was only for white males and not black males. This offends the blacks considering they were only wanted for labor and for them to not have a voice or at least a votation, is unacceptable.
