The1904 United States presidential election in New York took place on November 8, 1904. All contemporary 45 states were part of the1904 United States presidential election. Voters chose 39 electors to theElectoral College, who selected thepresident andvice president.
New York was the home state of both major party nominees,Republican nominee, incumbentPresidentTheodore Roosevelt andDemocratic nominee,Chief Judge of the New York Court of AppealsAlton B. Parker. New York was won by Roosevelt and his running mateCharles W. Fairbanks ofIndiana, defeating Parker and his running mateSenatorHenry G. Davis ofWest Virginia. Also in the running was theSocialist Party candidate,Eugene V. Debs, who ran withBen Hanford.
Roosevelt carried New York with 53.13% of the vote to Parker's 42.28%, a victory margin of 10.85%. Debs finished a distant third, receiving 2.28% of the vote in the state.
While New York would continue its Republican dominance of theFourth Party System, with New York being the home state of both major party candidates in 1904, the state's results were relatively close despite Roosevelt's nationwide landslide. The state was about 8 points more Democratic than the national average primarily due to Alton Parker's popularity in theNew York City area, with Parker winning majorities inManhattan,The Bronx,Queens, and winning a plurality onStaten Island.
