    The Election of 1800 resulted in a tie between Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr which had to be resolved by the House of Representatives, leading to the passage of the 12th Amendment. As the new president, Jefferson sought to reduce the size and influence of the federal government. His reforms included cutting the number of government employees and repealing taxes. In 1803, the Supreme Court established the power of judicial review in the case of Marbury v. Madison, allowing it to strike down unconstitutional laws.
