Answer:
Explanation:
The Dust Bowl was the name given to the drought-stricken Southern Plains region of the United States, which suffered severe dust storms during a dry period in the 1930s. As high winds and choking dust swept the region from Texas to Nebraska, people and livestock were killed and crops failed across the entire region. The Dust Bowl intensified the crushing economic impacts of the Great Depression and drove many farming families on a desperate migration in search of work and better living conditions.
In those days, prior to the ratification of the 12the Amendment in 1804, each member of the Electoral College cast two votes, without needing to distinguish between electoral votes for the office of president and those for vice-president. In the 1796 election, Adams had received the most Electoral College votes and Jefferson the second-most, so Adams had become president with Jefferson becoming vice-president. This set up some further rivalry for the 1800 election.
There was also division within Adams' Federalist party, with splits on policy between John Adams and another influential Federalist leader, Alexander Hamilton. Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr ran as the president/vice-president ticket for the Democratic-Republican Party.
There was much bitter campaigning in the 1800 election. In the end, Jefferson and Burr got 73 electoral votes each. Adams won 65 electoral votes, and Charles Pinckney (the Federalists' candidate for vice-president) won 64 electoral votes. Ultimately, Congress decided the outcome of the contested election, giving the presidency to Thomas Jefferson and vice-presidency to Aaron Burr.
Historians also have noted that this election was affected by the three-fifths clause of the United States Constitution, which allotted congressional representation numbers (and electoral college numbers) according to a formula that counted slaves in a state as 3/5 of the number of white inhabitants of the state. Without those added numbers giving extra weight to Southern states in the balance of Congressional proportions, it is thought that Adams would have won the Electoral College vote due to strong support for the Federalist candidates in the New England states.
