Despite winning the greatest number of popular and electrical votes in 1824, Andrew Jackson lost the presidency to John Quincy Adams. His supporters called this a Corrupt Bargain because Henry Clay was appointed to a political office in return for his part of the votes.

Explanation:

The 1824 presidential election was fought by four Democratic-Republican Party candidates, John Quincy Adams, Andrew Jackson, William Crawford, and Henry Clay. Due to the demise of the Federalist Party, there was no opposition from other political parties during these elections.

A majority of votes (131 votes) in the electoral college was required to be directly elected president. As none of the candidates reached this number, as stipulated in the Constitution, the House of Representatives had to decide between the three candidates with the most electors behind them.

Then, Henry Clay, who was the Speaker of the House and had obtained the fourth place in the election, decided to grant his votes to John Quincy Adams, to prevent Andrew Jackson from becoming president, since they did not get along and had notable political differences. Thus, Jackson lost the presidency and John Quincy Adams came to power.
