jun 15, 1804 - 12th Amendment

Description:

The 12th Amendment improved the process whereby a President and a Vice President are elected by the Electoral College. Every candidate who ran for president ran on their own, so they could've been paired up with a VP from another party. But the 12th amendment changed it to where electors pick a president and vice president on a ballot, and they run together.
