Which statement explains why george washington was elected the first president
Answered by maham237 @
Good question:
George Washington became president in 1789 when 69 members of Congress decided to vote him president. He was a military General and at that time, would be a perfect president.
The reason he became president was that: "George Washington, the commander of the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War, is unanimously elected the first president of the United States by all 69 presidential electors who cast their votes."
