George W. Bush Republican George W. Bush Republican The 2004 United States presidential election in Missouri took place on November 2, 2004, and was part of the 2004 United States presidential election.

Missouri was won by incumbent President George W. Bush by a 7.20% margin of victory.

He also won a wide majority of the counties and congressional districts in the state.

At the time, Missouri was known for its status as a bellwether state, having voted for the winner of every presidential election since 1904, apart from 1956.

These factors eventually led the state to lose its bellwether status in the next election, albeit by a narrow margin.

Bush won 6 of 9 congressional districts, including one held by a Democrat.

Instead the electors from each state and the District of Columbia met in their respective capitols.
