The 2004 DeKalb County, Georgia Chief Executive Officer election took place on November 2, 2004. Incumbent CEO Vernon Jones ran for re-election to a second term. Jones, who experienced controversy in office and faced a grand jury inquiry into county finances and his security detail,[1] was challenged by six opponents in the Democratic primary. However, Jones won renomination with 53 percent of the vote, avoiding the need for a runoff election. In the general election, Jones faced no Republican opposition and won 95 percent of the vote.
