Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The campaign of 1828 was a crucial event in a period that saw the development of a two-party system akin to our modern system, presidential electioneering bearing a closer resemblance to modern political campaigning, and the strengthening of the power of the executive branch.
Detailed explanation-2: -Jackson dominated in the South and the West, aided in part by the passage of the Tariff of 1828.
