The winner of the state's primary, Kerry, would go on to be the Democratic Party's nominee for the national election.
On Election Day, George W. Bush would defeat Kerry handily in Indiana and would ultimately be re-elected as president.
By the time of Indiana's primary, Kerry had already secured the Democratic nomination after several decisive victories on Super Tuesday in March.
Ballot returns broken down by congressional district shows the extent of Kerry's domination; there was not a single district he did not win the vast majority of votes in on the day of the primary.
Two more candidates, Dennis Kucinich and Lyndon LaRouche, were on the ballot for Hoosier voters, but in most districts, they both failed to garner more than a couple hundred votes apiece.
