John Adams won the election in 1796. His opponent, Thomas Jefferson, finished second and was therefore made the vice-president in accordance with the original constitution.
The president was George Washington, and the vice president was John Adams from 1789 - 1797.
The 2nd President of the United States was John Adams from March 4, 1797 to March 4, 1801. His Vice President was Thomas Jefferson (1797-1801)
No one. President Washington and VP Adams were elected that year, but didn't take office until the following spring.
John Adams was elected president in 1796 and Thomas Jefferson was the new vice president.
It is false. The election of 1796 resulted in a Federalist president and a Republican vice president.
The Presidential elections of 1796 were the third quadrennial elections. It was the first time that president and vice president were selected from opposing parties.
John Adams was elected U. S. President in 1796. However, because of the way the Vice President Elect was determined before 1804, and because electors were casting their second ("vice presidential") votes for so many different people, instead of Adams' "running mate", Thomas Pinckney, getting the Vice Presidency, it went to the 2nd place finisher, Adams' opponent, Thomas Jefferson.
