C Correct answer
Explanation

Grover Cleveland served as the 22nd President (1885-1889) and again as the 24th President (1893-1897), making him the only president to serve nonconsecutive terms. He won the popular vote in 1888 but lost the electoral college to Benjamin Harrison, then defeated Harrison in 1892. This unique achievement is why he is counted twice in presidential numbering.
