In the 1796 election no distinction was made between electoral votes for president and electoral votes for vice president. This was corrected in the 12th Amendment in 1804. Another diference was the fact that neither Adams (Federalist) nor Jefferson (Democratic-Republic) actively campaigned for the presidency.
What makes this election rather ¨modern¨ is the fact that Federalists accused the Democratic-Republicans of French Revolution violence, who in turn accused the Federalists of favoring monarchism and aristrocracy.
Explanation:The case of in re Gault- in re means "in the matter of"- dealt with juveniles accused of delinquent acts. The Court held 8-1 that certain due process rights must be afforded to all people accused of a crime, regardless of their age.
Due process is the legal requirement that requires the state to respect all the legal rights owed to a person. Due process balances the power of the state and protects the individual person from the power of the state.
