How to find the answer
How to find the answer: Search [electoral tie 1801] to find that a tie for president between Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr was broken by a vote in Congress. Jefferson was declared president and Burr became vice president. Search [12th Amendment] to learn that it requires the Electoral College to vote separately for the president and VP. So Aaron Burr would not have automatically become VP.
