With the ratification of the 17th Amendment in 1913, the U.S. Senate elections of 1914 was the first time that all seats up for election were popularly elected instead of chosen by their state legislatures. The election occurred in the middle of Democratic President Woodrow Wilson's first term. == Tally == Three seats held by Republicans were won by Democrats: * California: George Clement Perkins (R) retired → replaced by James D. Phelan (D) * South Dakota: Coe I. Crawford (R) lost renomination → replaced by Edwin S. Johnson (D) * Wisconsin: Isaac Stephenson (R) retired → replaced by Paul O. Husting (D) One incumbent senator, not up for re-election, later changed from Progressive to Republican. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「United States Senate elections, 1914」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
