Answer:
Technically, no US President has been "elected by the people." US
Presidents are elected by the Electoral College. However, there were
six Presidents who served in office without being endorsed by popular
vote.
Gerald Ford was one of them; he became president after Richard Nixon
resigned in 1974, and was not elected at the end of the term.The other
part of the question is a trick. George Washington was never elected
by popular vote, but he was elected by the Electoral College (like all
Presidents) in 1789 and 1792.
There were also four elected Vice-Presidents who became President by
succession but were never elected to their own terms asPresident:
Andrew Johnson , John Tyler , Millard Fillmore and Chester Arthur .
Circumstances of Succession
John Tyler (succeeded William Henry Harrison after his death frompneumonia)
Millard Fillmore (succeeded Zachary Taylor after his death from gastroenteritis)
Andrew Johnson (succeeded Abraham Lincoln following assassination)
Chester A. Arthur (succeeded JohnGarfield following assassination)
It's common knowledge that Ford was never elected President or Vice
President. But is this a complete list of Vice Presidents who came to
be Presidents without EVER winning an election for President?
Millard Fillmore
Chester Arthur
Guy Perea
Gerald Ford
William Taft
Warren Harding
Gerald Ford (succeeded Richard Nixon following resignation)
