It approached its demise. It began to splinter into 2 distinct groups - the moderate Federalists, like John Adams, and the High Federalists, like Alexander Hamilton. With the election of 1800 it declined further, and in 1804 (following the death of Alexander Hamilton, in a duel) it collapsed. It stayed alive for a while, but it was disorganized without its leader and was not as powerful as the Democratic-Republicans, who enjoyed a decade or two without opposition.
