Try here first: [CNN.com Election 2004 - U.S. President](http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2004/pages/results/president/)

There is a lot of detail but sometimes you have to try several different ways to get the data as some of the links are broken.

[electoral-vote.com](http://electoral-vote.com) still has its 2004 post-election results available: [Electoral Vote Predictor: Nov 8, 2004](http://www.electoral-vote.com/evp2004/Pres/Maps/Nov08.html). If you hover your cursor over the individual states, it shows the results in each state.

[US Election Atlas](http://uselectionatlas.org/) is a fantastic site for election results, from 1789 to present. Check out the ‘Election Results’ tab at the top of the page.

[Daily Kos](http://scoreboard.dailykos.com/map/) is another good one with an interactive map on Pres, Senate, House, and Govs races for the last 3 cycles.
