The election of 1828 was unique because it was the first presidential election

The 1828 election was the first in which presidential candidates actively campaigned to win voters’ support. Andrew Jackson defeated incumbent John Quincy Adams, so it did not end in a tie, a popular-vote loss by the winner, or a decision by the House of Representatives. The correct choice is “in which the candidates campaigned for votes.”
