"During the election of 1824, Andrew Jackson won the most electoral votes, but not the majority needed to be elected President".

Of the four biggest candidates, none got majority in the Electoral College. So, according to the Constitution, the House of Representatives had to choose the winner and John Quincy Adams was elected.
