Respuesta :

I believe the answer is: The campaign split the vote of the Democratic party.

At that time, the democratic party appointed Lewis Cass and  Martin Van Burren loathed him. Van Buren knew that by campaigning, he will split the democratic vote which will cause the election to  ended up in whig's party victory. He intentionally did that to prevent Lewis from being  a president.

Correct answer is it split the vote of the Democractic party
