Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The United States presidential election of 1796 was the first contested American presidential election and the only one to elect a President and Vice President from opposing tickets. With incumbent President George Washington having refused a third term in office, incumbent Vice President John Adams of Massachusetts was a candidate for the presidency on the Federalist Party ticket with former Governor Thomas Pinckney of South Carolina as the next most popular Federalist. Their opponents were former Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson of Virginia along with Senator Aaron Burr of New York on the Democratic-Republican ticket. At this point, each man from any party ran alone, as the formal position of "running mate" had not yet been established.
