.... 1824 had a backroom deal that denied the popular and electoral vote winner the Presidency.

Jackson was not the electoral vote winner.    To win the electoral vote requires a majority of the electoral votes.  Jackson did not come close to a majority. 

I also dont consider Jackson the popular vote winner.  6 states did not report a popular vote count.

I wouldn't say that 2000 was stolen. Just awarded incorrectly by biased individuals.
It's hard for me to call it "stolen" when neither candidate ever really definitively had it in the bag.

How is that different than 1876?
