How had the American electorate changed by the election of 1828? Thanks to the suffragette movement, women in some states were eligible to vote. With landholding requirements still in place, fewer men were eligible to vote. With landholding requirements eliminated, most white men were eligible to vote. Property requirements for voting continued to keep African American men from voting. I dont know the last one at all.

1. How had the American electorate changed by the election of 1828? Changes in voting qualifications and participation, the election of Andrew Jackson, and the formation of the Democratic Party—due largely to the organizational skills of Martin Van Buren—all contributed to making the election of 1828 and Jackson's presidency a watershed in the evolution of the American political system. 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
