What happened in New Hampshire, 1824

In 1824, New Hampshire awarded its 8 electoral votes to Adams of the Democratic-Republican party. That placed New Hampshire with the eventual winner: John Quincy Adams went on to take the presidency, and New Hampshire was part of his column.

New Hampshire stayed in the Democratic-Republican column for the 6th straight cycle, extending a run that began in 1804. New Hampshire did not move alone — neighboring Vermont, Massachusetts, and Maine broke the same way in 1824. Over its 59 recorded presidential cycles, New Hampshire has backed the Republican party more than any other — 28 times in all. The vote fell within the Era of Good Feelings — One-party rule and the Corrupt Bargain.

With no candidate reaching an Electoral College majority, the 1824 election was decided in the House of Representatives.
