Only 2000 for sure.

Although 1824 and 1876 are quite suspect.

1876 (though I am in the camp that it was stolen for Tilden and then appropriately taken back)

1916 (Wilson clearly loses without Jim Crow in the South)

1884 (see 1916, but Jim Crow was less entrenched and Cleveland had a big EV lead from winning NY)

JFK's recorded popular vote win in 1960

The problem with 1876 isn't The South, it's Colorado. They used random electors with no popular vote backing. It was there that determined the 1 vote that stopped Tilden.
