Prior to splitting the votes for president and vice president, I believe that the vice president was always the candidate who recieved the second most number of electoral votes. Jefferson was elected by the House when Hamilton finally threw his support behind Jefferson over Burr. This was the cause of the fatal Hamilton/Burr duel, or so the story goes.
