The Rise of Popular Democracy and the Emergence of Political Parties

Pre-Revolution View of Political Parties – Parties are evils and the only proper Party is one that eliminates all Parties. 2. Madison (also Jefferson & Monroe) – Sores on the Body Politic -- Parties are the Price one Pays for Liberty; they can be checked but not eliminated. Unanimity was the ideal! 3. Martin van Buren – Parties are Inevitable and Good!

States – 1790, 13; 1796, 16; 1821, 24. Between 1810 – 1820 six new states entered the Union and all dropped property qualifications for voting. This put pressure on the remaining older states to follow suit.

Method of Choosing Presidential Electors – 1800 only 2 states by popular vote; 1824, 18 of 24 States by popular vote; 1828, 22 of 24 States by popular vote (only DE and SC held out); 1832 all 24 States by popular vote. Turnout – 1824, 324,000 votes 25% turnout; 1828, 1,100,000 votes, 58-60% turnout.
