A presidential election was held in Indiana on November 30, 1820, as part of the 1820 United States presidential election. The Democratic-Republican ticket of the incumbent president James Monroe and vice president Daniel D. Tompkins received three votes from electors chosen by the Indiana General Assembly.[1] Monroe easily won the national election with 231 electoral votes; one faithless elector voted for the U.S. secretary of state John Quincy Adams.[2]
