Illinois voted for Senator Kerry in the 2004 election. Senator Kerry's victory in Illinois was primarily due to the Democratic stronghold of the Chicago area's Cook County, where about 43% of Illinois' population resides. In the remaining 57% of the state, Bush won 54.6% (1,749,203) to 45.3% (1,452,265), though his margin of victory in traditionally Republican strongholds such as DuPage County and Lake County was narrower than this.
