B. Jackson placing supporters into Federal offices
The spoils system refers to the practice of appointing individuals to government positions based on their political loyalty and support rather than their qualifications or merit. It became particularly associated with President Andrew Jackson, who utilized this system by appointing his political allies and supporters to various federal offices.
