After John Quincy Adams won the presidency in 1824, despite Andrew Jackson receiving the most popular and electoral votes, Jackson and his supporters accused Adams of a "corrupt bargain" with Henry Clay, who became Secretary of State. In response, Jackson intensified his political activities, rallying his supporters and building a more organized political movement that ultimately led to his victory in the 1828 election. This marked the rise of the Democratic Party and a shift toward a more populist approach in American politics.
