Main article: 1824 United States presidential election

Crawford Adams Jackson Clay Tie No Data/Vote The 1824 United States presidential election in Virginia took place between October 26 and December 2, 1824, as part of the 1824 United States presidential election. Voters chose 24 representatives, or electors to the Electoral College, who voted for President and Vice President.

During this election, the Democratic-Republican Party was the only major national party, and 4 candidates from this party sought the Presidency. Virginia voted for William H. Crawford over John Quincy Adams, Andrew Jackson, and Henry Clay. Crawford won Virginia by a margin of 33.44%. This was the first presidential election that four candidates each won at least one county in the same state. This feat would be shared by Illinois in the same election; however, the only other occurrences in presidential election history have been in 1860 (in Missouri), and in 1912 (in North Dakota and in Kansas).
