United States presidential election, 1796
Det amerikanske præsidentvalg i 1796 var det tredje præsidentvalg i fireårsperioden. Det blev afholdt fra fredag den 4. november til onsdag den 7. december 1796. Det var det første omstridte amerikanske præsidentvalg, det første præsidentvalg, hvor politiske partier spillede en dominerende rolle, og det eneste præsidentvalg, hvor præsident og vicepræsident blev valgt fra modsatrettede partier. Den siddende vicepræsident John Adams fra det føderalistiske parti besejrede den tidligere udenrigsminister Thomas Jefferson fra det demokratisk-republikanske parti.
