Four presidents were members of the United States Whig Party:

  2. John Tyler (see note) (1841-1845)
  3. Zachary Taylor (1849-1850)
  4. Millard Fillmore (1850-1853)

Note: Although Tyler was elected vice president on the Whig ticket, his policies soon proved to be opposed to most of the Whig agenda, and he was expelled from the party in 1841, a few months after taking office.

Four presidents were members of the United States Democratic-Republican Party:

  1. Thomas Jefferson (1801-1809)
  2. James Madison (1809-1817)
  3. James Monroe (1817-1825)
  4. John Quincy Adams (1825-1829)

John Adams (1797-1801) was the only president elected as a member of the United States Federalist Party.

George Washington (1789-1797) is currently the only president to have been elected without any official endorsement by a political party. Generally speaking, Washington's policies reflected a moderate Federalist agenda.
