Answer 1

The answer is false. You are referring to the 1796 Presidential Election, in which John Adams, of the Federalist Party, defeated Thomas Jefferson, of the Democratic-Republican Party. This was, however, a very particular presidential election, since, for the first time, the president (Adams) and the vice-president (Jefferson) were from different political parties.
