Chapter 6 Section 2: The Election of 1800

John Adams as President French were angry because of Jay’s Treaty with the British & began seizing American ships in French harbors –Adams sent officials to Paris to negotiate

The XYZ Affair & Troubles with France Americans met with secret agents (X, Y, Z) Demanded a bribe of $250,000 & a loan to the French of $10 million before they would be allowed to see the foreign minister

U.S. refused & came home By 1798 both countries were in an undeclared naval war

The Alien & Sedition Acts Laws passed included increasing the size of the army & higher taxes. Alien Act- gave the President the power to arrest & deport citizens

Naturalization Act- increased the time to become a citizen from 5 to 14 years Sedition Act- person who wrote, published, or said anything “false, scandalous, & malicious” against the government or it’s officials could be fined or jailed

Used to silence Republican opposition 10 Republicans were convicted & many others were put on trial

The VA & KY Resolutions States felt the Alien & Sedition Acts violated the Constitution Constitution doesn’t say who has the authority to judge the constitutionality of laws

Passed these resolutions States have the right to judge whether federal laws agreed with the Constitution

Gabriel Prosser’s Rebellion African American blacksmith He & several other slaves planned a rebellion in the Richmond area Intended to take over Richmond & win freedom Failed before it got underway –At least 20 were executed

The Election of 1800 Adams loses Federalist support Needed to stop the undeclared naval war with France –Peaceful solution angered many Federalists They were in favor of a harsher policy; including a formal declaration of war

Adams sent a second diplomatic mission Hurt him in the election because… –Lost support from aggressive Federalists –Alien & Sedition Acts now seen as unnecessary

Hamilton rallied against Adams urging to vote for Charles Pinckney –Showed lack of unity in the party

The Jeffersonian Republicans Support for France had damaged their popularity Able to use conflicts with the Federalists to their advantage

The Campaign No speeches or statements from the candidates –Conducted through newspapers, pamphlets, etc Jefferson –Accused Adams of being a monarchist –Appealed to the common man –Linked Adams w/Alien & Sedition Acts

Federalists –Jefferson was a godless man –Agent of the French revolution

Jefferson’s Victory Won the popular vote in December, but didn’t win a majority in the Electoral College Jefferson & his running mate Aaron Burr both received 73 votes Adams won 65 & his VP 64

Article II- If 2 candidates tied, the House decides Federalists controlled the old House Jefferson received support from Hamilton Feb. 17- House chose Jefferson on the 36 th ballot

A Peaceful Transfer of Power New capital was designed by Pierre L’Enfant to feature broad boulevards & Roman buildings
