Well, Jackson was portrayed as a common man, and there is no other state in the union with more "common men" than Alabama...

Seriously, though. Clay was also a protectionist, and it was no where more unpopular than in the strongly free trade South.

I can understand getting 100% of the vote, but weren't ballots passed out by parties at this time?  Why would the National Republicans pass out 5 ballots?

No, ballots were not passed out by the parties. Voting was conducted in much the same manner as it is today.
