About the Crawford Federalist Party
The presidential election of 1824 featured four major candidates, all Democrat-Republicans: John Quincy Adams, Andrew Jackson, William Crawford, and Henry Clay.
Members elected to the Eighteenth Congress are identified by a combination of their party label ("Federalist") and the candidate they supported for President ("Crawford"). By the time the election was decided, Crawford had suffered a serious stroke and was unable to campaign among representatives. Crawford declined to run for election in 1828 and 1832. Crawford Supporters typically became supporters of Andrew Jackson, and so are identified as such in the subsequent congresses until the formation of the Democratic Party.
