Question

The term the __________, created by President Andrew Jackson: when the party in power changed, there was a full-scale replacement of officials by party faithful—who donated some of their salary to party coffers.

Answer 1

"Spoils System"

Step-by-step explanation:

The term the "Spoils System" was officially created during the term of American President Andrew Jackson (1829-37) when the practice of hiring and firing federal workers when presidential administrations changed became common. The system consisted of giving government jobs to Andrew Jackson's friends and supporters (or party faithful) as a way to reward them and build a stronger party organization.

Jackson's supporters saw the system as something necessary to reform the federal government, however, it was widely criticized by his political opponents who saw it as a corrupt use of political patronage because the individuals weren't hired based on skills or experience.
