What 2 factors helped Jackson win the election of 1828? Expansion of voting rights. War hero, and a humble back round.

Jackson's supporters called themselves Democrats, and would formally organize as the Democratic Party shortly after his election. In hopes of uniting those opposed to Adams, Jackson ran on a ticket with sitting Vice President John C. Calhoun.
