How did Henry Clay help Adams win?
The two opponents in the election of 1828 had faced each other before, in the election of 1824. It was a strange election that ended with what became known as "The Corrupt Bargain." The 1824 race ended with no candidate receiving a majority of votes in the electoral college. The race had to be decided by lawmakers in the House of Representatives. Speaker of the House Henry Clay was the leader of the House of Representatives. It was widely believed that he used his influence to tilt the victory to John Quincy Adams. Adams then rewarded him by naming him secretary of state.
