Best Answer

Jackson actually won the popular vote -- you are thinking of John Q. Adams who won the

presidency in 1824 when Jackson won the plurality of the popular vote.

Others who won the presidency but lost the popular vote were Hayes in 1876 and

George Bush in 2000, and probably John Kennedy in 1960.
