The majority’s vote sums up popular sovereignty
The Missouri Compromise—also referred to as the Compromise of 1820—was an agreement between the pro- and anti-slavery factions regulating slavery in the western territories. It prohibited slavery in new states north of the border of the Arkansas territory, excluding Missouri.
In the early 19th century, the ruling political party was the Democratic-Republicans. They selected their candidate through a vote of their members in Congress. This system let them control the White House for 20 years. Then the rivalry of John Quincy Adams and Andrew Jackson.divided the Democratic-Republicans into two after the 1824 elections and became Democrats and Whigs.
