2004 Presidential Primary and Caucus Dates



We will be voting for President of the United States in less than one year, on November 2, 2004. Presidential primaries, however, are set to begin as early as January 2004 in some states. Dates for Presidential primaries, and the type of Presidential primary held, varies from state to state. In some states, a caucus and/or convention may be held instead of a Presidential primary election. Other states may use a combination of both caucuses and primaries for delegate selection.
