The 2004 New South Wales local elections were held on 27 March 2004 to elect the councils of the local government areas (LGAs) of New South Wales, Australia.[2][3] Several councils also held mayoral elections.[4][5]
Just one month before the elections, several councils were abolished and amalgamated.[6][7][8]
One Nation contested at least five LGAs, although the party's incumbent Campbelltown councillor, Bob Thompson, left the party prior to the 2004 elections.[9][10]
The Australian Jewish News observed that there was an "unprecedented number" of Jewish candidates contesting the elections.[11]
