What a difference one vote makes
2004 The presidential election of November 2, 2004 was another close race! After results in 49 states were counted, President George W. Bush and Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts both needed Ohio's 20 electoral votes to reach 270 total and win the presidency. In the end, President Bush got 118,775 more votes in Ohio than Senator Kerry and took the state. Bush's share of the popular vote was just 2.5% more than Kerry's, which was the closest popular vote margin ever for a victorious sitting president.
