Explanation:
In the spoils system, government officials were not appointed based on merit, but based on political patronage, that is to say, government officials were appointed in exchange for political support, both ideological and financial.
The spoils system reached a height during the presidency of Andrew Jackson, and this created tensions in the political class.
