No one received the majority of electoral votes in 1824--due to this the top 3 candidates moved on to the House of Representatives for a vote. 

In 1824, no clear majority winner came out of the electoral votes. Andrew Jackson, John Q. Adams, and William Crawford were the top three vote winners so they went onto the House vote. In the House, each state gets one vote--John Q. Adams ended up winning the election.

Economic differences between the northern, southern and western states had the biggest effect on ___?
ikadub [295]

The correct answer is increasing sectionalism.

During the early to mid 19th century, the American economy was developing in very different ways. For example, the Northern states were becoming more industrialized and focused significantly on the production of manufactured goods. On the other hand, Southern states still relied heavily on slave labor to grow cash crops (especially cotton). This was vastly different than the North, as slavery had been outlawed in many of these states.

The issue of slavery, it's existence, and its extension into new territories in the west caused significant problems between Northern and Southern states. This was especially true when Northern and Southern politicians meet in Congress to discuss these issues.
