I like how these are head-to-head comparisons and you actually use the faces as the answer choices

John Quincy Adams lost both the electoral college and popular vote in 1824. Andrew Jackson got the largest share of each, but NO candidate won the constitutional majority of 50%. Adams won as a result of the House of Representatives election in February 1825, NOT the electoral college vote in December of 1824.
