Originally the person with the largest number of votes in the Electoral College became President and the person with the next largest number of votes became Vice-President. This resulted in the two main competitors becoming President and Vice-President. They were often of very different opinions and unable to work well together. The 12th Amendment established separate ballots for President and for Vice-President. No person running for President would then end up as Vice-President to his opponent. This has resulted in the Presidential Ticket, in which each party nominates one person for President and one for Vice-President, and a team from a single party is usually elected to office.

Electoral College
The Twelfth Amendment to the United States Constitution provides the procedure by which the President and Vice President are elected. It replaced Article 2, Section 1, Clause 3, which provided the original procedure by which the Electoral College functioned. Problems with this procedure were demonstrated in the elections of 1796 and 1800. The Twelfth Amendment was proposed by the Congress on December 9, 1803 and was ratified by the requisite number of state legislatures on June 15, 1804
The Twelfth Amendment was passed. It changed the way presidents are elected. It was no longer the first place votes would be President and second place would be VP.
