Many Americans felt that the result of the 1824 election was fraudulent primarily because Andrew Jackson won the majority of both the popular and electoral votes but did not secure the presidency. The election was thrown into the House of Representatives because no candidate received the required majority of electoral votes. In the House, John Quincy Adams was chosen as president with the help of Henry Clay, which led to accusations of a "corrupt bargain." This sense of betrayal contributed to widespread beliefs that the election outcome was unjust and rigged. Therefore, the most accurate response is:

**As Speaker of the House, Henry Clay helped John Quincy Adams become president; later, Adams appointed Clay secretary of state.**
