Answer:

In the presidential election of 1800, each elector in the electoral college could cast two votes.

Option: (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

  • First time in the 1800 presidential elections, the Federalist Party lost to the Democratic Republican Party with a margin of eight electoral votes.
  • After about 24 years of independence, the power shifted from one party to another. But this shift of power was controversial.
  • Taking lesson from the 1800 presidential elections, the 12th amendment was made to the United States Constitution.
