In the Canadian federal election of 1904, SIr Wilfrid Laurier led the Liberal Party of Canada to a second term in government, with an increased majority in the canadian House of Commons, and over half of the popular vote.
Sir Robert Borden's Conservatives and [[Liberal-Conservative]s] were unable to challenge the Liberals effectively, and lost a small portion of their popular vote, along with four seats.
