Honestly I think it's because the polls said clinton was gonna win by a landslide so I think people got comfortable. pollsters call people and ask who they're voting for and I don't think many people want to admit they're voting for someone like trump so the numbers were wrong.
Answer:
The Democratic Party was the party of slavery, and is the party of unequal treatment based on race, rather than equal opportunity based on merit.
Explanation:
Andrew Jackson was related to the Democratic Party, as it was widely known with it's history of impeding on people's rights based on skin-color or national origin. He also was the embodiment of many of the beliefs of the Democratic Party. Firstly, he embraced the usage of slavery, and was a ardent holder of slaves. The Democratic Party had always worked for keeping the institution of slavery as a means of not only workforce and profit, but also as a way to degrade "non-whites" into being second-class humans, (also commonly known as sub-humans). Piggy-backing off of the issue of slavery, Jackson also campaigned against many of the Native American tribes that were located to the west of the then-US, starting wars and taking lands from the defeated Native American tribes. Again, the Native American tribes were classified as sub-humans, and did not receive any benefits that would generally be implied to a white-US citizen.
This led to the unpopularity of Jackson within the Whig-Republican circles, and he was succeeded by Martin van Buren.
