Correct answer:

in closed meetings, by a small group of privileged citizens

The small group where the presidential candidate was selected before the public conventions began was made up of white adults with a certain level of wealth and power.<u> The reason why this system did not work is because people did not have a voice to choose from and the presidential candidate had greater dependence on Congress.</u>
