Date: 5 Nov 2008 06:08 (UTC)Ah, don't forget Rutherford B. Hayes lost the popular vote in 1876 but still got into the Whitehouse. The 1876 vote was a fiasco worse than the mess in Florida 8 years back. 3 states (Florida, Louisiana, and South Carolina) could not declare a victor even though polls predicted wins in all 3 for the Democratic party. A commission of mostly Republican party hacks gave all the disputed electoral votes to Hayes. Oh, and this election had ballot problems akin to those in Florida in 2000 whereby the Democratic ballot was made to look like a Republican ballot. (Some states had separate ballots for each party then.)
