The election of 1800 was contentious and bitter in all of the following ways EXCEPT: A. the Federalists portrayed Jefferson as a godless revolutionary. B. the Republicans claimed that Washington was not a true hero of the Revolution. C. the Republicans portrayed Adams as a monarchist determined to undo the Revolution. D. the electoral tie between Burr and Jefferson was heatedly debated behind closed doors.

B. the Republicans claimed that Washington was not a true hero of the Revolution.

Explanation:

George Washington's popularity and respect amongst the American people is so immense that even though he owned enslaved people, this is not talked about often and is usually overshadowed by his other achievements.

In the year 1800, Washington had only left office less than a decade before that so he was still immensely respected. The Democrat-Republican party would have therefore avoided criticizing him if they wanted to get any votes at all.
