Parliamentary elections were held in Mongolia on 27 June 2004. Despite losing half of its seats to the opposition that was wiped out in the 2000 election, the Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party (MPRP) won 36 out of 76 seats and remained as the largest party in the State Great Khural.
The Motherland Democratic Coalition (MDC) led by the newly founded Democratic Party (DP) won 34 out of 76 seats in the State Great Khural but failed to meet the threshold for a majority rule. 2 seats were disputed between the two parties, leaving them vacant until by-elections were held. A hung parliament was ultimately convened on 26 July 2004 and soon later a coalition government, headed by MDC chairman Tsakhiagiin Elbegdorj, was formed.
In the February 2005 by-elections, both the MPRP and the MDC each won a single seat in the 59th and 24th constituency.
