• Preliminary results from the 9 March primary had Congressman Rodriguez winning the Democratic nomination by 145 votes (Ciro D. Rodriguez: 24,363, Henry Cuellar: 24,218). A recount, requested by Mr. Cuellar, was completed on 1 April. The recount gave Henry Cuellar a 203 vote lead with most of the change coming from Webb and Zapata counties in Cuellar's home region. Irregularities surfaced with the discovery of 304 previously untabulated votes in Zapata and 177 additional votes in Webb. The certified vote as of 6 April 2004 is Henry Cuellar: 24,651, Ciro D. Rodriguez: 24,448. Rodriguez filed suit on 14 April in Webb County. On 7 May 2004, a court ordered recount had Henry Cuellar winning the nomination by 58 votes. Congressman Rodriguez appealed the decision to 4th Court of Appeals on 14 May 2004 and lost. He conceeded defeat 11 August 2004 after the Texas Supreme Court rejected his second appeal.
