Presidents Winning Without Popular Vote - FactCheck.org
Q: How many times was a president elected who did not win the popular vote?

A: It has happened five times.

FULL ANSWER

The 2016 election was the most recent when the candidate who received the greatest number of electoral votes, and thus won the presidency, didn’t win the popular vote. But this scenario has played out in our nation’s history before.

In 1824, John Quincy Adams was elected president despite not winning either the popular vote or the electoral vote. Andrew Jackson was the winner in both categories. Jackson received 38,000 more popular votes than Adams, and beat him in the electoral vote 99 to 84. Despite his victories, Jackson didn’t reach the majority 131 votes needed in the Electoral College to be declared president. In fact, neither candidate did. The decision went to the House of Representatives, which voted Adams into the White House.

In 1876, Rutherford B. Hayes won the election (by a margin of one electoral vote), but he lost the popular vote by more than 250,000 ballots to Samuel J. Tilden.

In 1888, Benjamin Harrison received 233 electoral votes to Grover Cleveland’s 168, winning the presidency. But Harrison lost the popular vote by more than 90,000 votes.

In 2000, George W. Bush was declared the winner of the general election and became the 43rd president, but he didn’t win the popular vote either. Al Gore holds that distinction, garnering about 540,000 more votes than Bush. However, Bush won the electoral vote, 271 to 266.

In 2016, Donald Trump won the electoral vote by 304 to 227 over Hillary Clinton, but Trump lost the popular vote. Clinton received nearly 2.9 million more votes than Trump, according to an analysis by the Associated Press of the certified results in all 50 states and Washington, D.C.

Update, Dec. 23, 2016: We have updated this article to include the results of the 2016 election.

Excellent!

Now,

How many have been elected without winning the Electoral Vote?

That's just dumb. The electoral vote is an anomaly. It has only differed from the popular vote 5 times in the history of our country, and only twice since the 1800s.
The larger part of the country didn't want Trump as president. The electoral college glitch put him in that position. Yes, he did technically win, but he's illegitimate.

Doesnt' answer the question.

Care to try again?

There is no question that the electoral vote is the technical deciding factor. The fact that only 2 presidents since the 1800s won the electoral college, but not the popular vote, proves it is just a glitch.

and you're fine and dandy with the possibility of 14-16 states determining the presidency?

Because that is all it would take for the popular vote alone.

There IS a reason why those 16 or so states are BLUE and the population flocks to those areas.........

and the other 30+ states can just suck ass?

Founders were bright enough not to let that happen.

No, moron........THAT is one of the reasons we had a Civil War.......

Only 2 of the last 22 presidents won the election without winning the popular vote. Those two presidents were also the least qualified, and had close to the lowest IQs of all the presidents.

Right?

it was the decision of the majority of states to put them in the WH?

You're obviously one of those that would prefer 14-16 states decide the presidency, based on population.

Mention to right wingers that Trump won election because of the outdated electoral college system.....and they quickly respond with....."LOOK at the Constitution..."

Or dare mention that stricter gun laws should be enacted to curb the butchery....and they quickly respond with........"LOOK at the Constitution."

But when one of their ilk is convicted of breaking tenets within the Constitution, like the old goat Joe Arpaio did and this bigot gets pardoned....some of them quickly respond with......"us racists stick together."

what did the 'old goat' joe do, that he didn't deserve a pardon?

Well, for starters Joe defied a court order issued by the DOJ which means that Trump obstructed his own DOJ in pardoning him.

The Sherrif knowingly violated the Constitutional rights of thousands of American citizens over the years by subjecting them to illegal searches with no probable cause just based on their physical appearance.

He cost taxpayers millions of dollars in court settlements paid to settle claims that he violated the rights of US citizens. And he continued to do so despite numerous court orders to cease and desist.

If Sherrif Arpaio had been stopping cars driven by white teenagers on the grounds that they were probably drug users with marijuana on board, the white nationalists would be screaming for his head on a platter, but you ignore the number of legal citizens he hassled while looking for illegals.

You're obviously one of those that would prefer 14-16 states decide the presidency, based on population.

With the electoral college, a vote in Wyoming is worth almost 4 times what a vote in California is. Whining because some states have a larger population, doesn't make it right to give the lower population states more voting power.
