Good to know
- No candidate won a majority of electoral votes. The House of Representatives elected John Quincy Adams, although Andrew Jackson had won the most electoral votes.
- Some electoral votes were split within states, cast by faithless electors or not counted, so the coloured states do not add up exactly to the official totals shown here. Each state is coloured by the party that won most of its electors.
