During this election, Connecticut cast its nine electoral votes to Democratic Republican candidate and incumbent President James Monroe.
Effectively, the 1820 presidential election was an election with no campaign, since there was no serious opposition to Monroe and Tompkins. In fact, they won all the electoral votes barring 1 from New Hampshire, which was cast for Secretary of State John Quincy Adams.
