the constitution remained the main issue for americans until the 1792 elections, consisting of a battle between the u.s. federalist party (pro-administration party), which supported the constitution and the anti-federalist party (anti-administration party), which opposed the constitution. after the first congressional and presidential elections took place in 1789, the federalists had control over us congress. between 1792 and 1800 the struggle over congress came between alexander hamilton's federalist party- which was popular through the successful first bank of the united states, until 1792- and thomas jefferson's democratic republican party. jefferson's party managed to finally gain control over the us house of representatives after the 1792 elections, thanks in part to one of the top federalists, james madison, uniting with moderate jefferson and prominent anti-federalists to form the democratic republican party, as madison became an opposer to secretary of treasury alexander hamilton's first bank of the united states. in 1794, however, the democratic republican party lost control of the united states senate, thanks in part to the party's opposition to jay's treaty. in 1796, the democratic republican party would also lose control of the united states house of representatives, due to the party's support of the unpopular french revolution, though the democratic republican party still could obtain second place victories in these elections- which made jefferson the us vice president- as well; washington, however, was supported by almost every american, and even though he ran under the federalist ticket, he still was not an official federalist and was easily re-elected u.s. president unanimously in 1792 as well, and john adams- an actual federalist who was also elected united states president in 1796- was elected vice president (president of the senate) on the federalist ticket with washington as well.
