Explanation:

1. For "It featured a tie vote in the Electoral College": In the 1800 election, Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr received the same number of electoral votes, resulting in a tie in the Electoral College.
2. For "It produced a president and vice president from different parties": After the tie was resolved, Jefferson (Democratic - Republican) became president and Burr (also Democratic - Republican at the time, but the situation led to changes in how president and vice - president were elected) - however, the main point here is that the original setup led to a situation where the election process had to be revised. But more accurately, the 1800 election led to the 12th Amendment, and the tie showed the flaw in the original electoral system. Also, the transfer of power: The election of 1800 was a transfer of power from the Federalist Party (John Adams was a Federalist) to the Democratic - Republican Party (Jefferson was a Democratic - Republican), so "It featured a transfer of power from one party to an opposing party" is correct. The "It produced a president and vice president from different parties" is incorrect because Jefferson and Burr were from the same party. So the correct boxes are "It featured a tie vote in the Electoral College" and "It featured a transfer of power from one party to an opposing party".

Answer:

• It featured a tie vote in the Electoral College.
• It featured a transfer of power from one party to an opposing party.
