Local elections were held in Pasig on May 10, 2004, within the Philippine general election. The voters elected for the elective local posts in the city: the mayor, vice mayor, the congressman, and the councilors, six of them in the two districts of the city.

Background

Mayor Soledad "Soleng" Eusebio was on her first term. Although eligible to run for second term, she did not ran. Her husband, former Mayor Vicente "Enteng" Eusebio ran for her place instead. Eusebio was challenged by former Rep. Henry Lanot of Lakas–CMD, Charmie "Claire" Benavidez, Alexander "Alex" Iglesias, Vicente "Buddy" Fabella, Belen Bueno of DGIPP, and Vener "Nher" Obispo of PIBID.

Vice Mayor Lorna Angeles-Bernardo was on her third term, and she was term-limited. Her place was contested by Second District Councilor Rosalio "Yoyong" Martirez, Angelito "Lito" Comsti, Briccio "Echie" Ramos, Wainwright "Win" Rivera, Elino "Lino" Manalo, and Martin Torres.

Rep. Henry Lanot was unseated on August 11, 2001, following his re-election. He was replaced by his opponent, Noel "Toti" Cariño.[1] Cariño was declared as duly elected representative after winning against Lanot of 1,369 votes.[2] Cariño faced prominent candidates, including Former San Juan Councilor Robert "Dodot" Jaworski Jr. Atty.
