Tons.

Alabama
Alaska
Arizona
Colorado
Delaware
Florida
Hawaii
Idaho
Kansas
Maine
Maryland
Minnesota
Mississippi
Montana
Nebraska
Nevada
New Mexico
North Dakota
Oklahoma
Oregon
Rhode Island
South Carolina*
South Dakota
Utah
Washington
West Virginia
Wisconsin
Wyoming

* - Note that Andrew Jackson was born in either North Carolina or South Carolina, but it is unknown exactly where. If Jackson was born in North Carolina, 32 states have never had Presidents born in them; if South Carolina, then 31.

Oh, and obviously the District of Columbia has never had a President either.

I think this is it.

Wrong and wrong,  Eisenhower was elected from NY and PA; Wilson from NJ.

That's hard to say, I guess. Is Bush from Texas or Maine? Too many politicians have multiple homes. It would be hard to find that sort of information.

George H. W. Bush was registered in Texas at the time of all of his elections.

Neither were born in those states.

That isn't the question.  It's from which state from which state the president was elected from.
