Sissy · Answer 2

On February 9, 1825, the House of Representatives elected John Quincy Adams as president ... However, no one had won a majority of the presidential electoral vote, and the 1824 election thus became the first (and, so far, only) election to be decided in the House of Representatives under the terms of the 12th Amendment.
