Each voter was only allowed to cast one ballot with two names on it, according the Constitution. The Federalist candidate John Adams received the most votes. Adams defeated Democratic-Republican Thomas Jefferson by three votes, and Jefferson was elected vice president.

Federalist and Democratic-Republican parties participated in a presidential election for the first time in 1796. John Adams, a federalist, narrowly defeated Thomas Jefferson, a Democrat-Republican, by just three electoral votes.

In America, elections with candidates from several political parties were first held in 1796. According to Professor Pasley, the Federalist Party and Democratic-Republican Party used a variety of tactics to damage the reputations of John Adams and Thomas Jefferson.
