The 2004 Tennessee Republican presidential primary was held on February 10, 2004, along with primaries in Arkansas and Oregon. Voters chose the state's 52 pledged delegates to the 2004 Republican National Convention.
Incumbent president George W. Bush won the primary and all of the state's delegates.
Tennessee was allocated 55 delegates to the Republican National Convention: 52 were allocated based on the results of the primary, with the other three being unpledged superdelegates. [1]
12 delegates were assigned statewide while 27 were assigned to the state's nine congressional districts, with three delegates per district. The delegate allocation rules for both statewide and district delegates were the same. A candidate would win all the delegates if they won a majority of the vote, but if the candidate with the most votes won less than 50%, the delegates were awarded proportionally based on the popular vote with a 20% threshold to qualify for delegates.

The Democratic National Convention (DNC) is a series of presidential nominating conventions held every four years since 1832 by the United States Democratic Party. They have been administered by the Democratic National Committee since the 1852 national convention. The primary goal of the Democratic National Convention is to officially nominate a candidate for president and vice president, adopt a comprehensive party platform, and unify the party. Pledged delegates from all fifty U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and the American territories, and superdelegates which are unpledged delegates representing the Democratic establishment, attend the convention and cast their votes to choose the party's presidential candidate. Like the Republican National Convention, the Democratic National Convention marks the formal end of the primary election period and the start of the general election season. Since the 1980s, national conventions have become mostly inaugural events for the winning candidate, since winners are announced long before the convention. In 2020, both major parties, and many minor parties, replaced their usual in-person conventions with virtual programs due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
