United States Senate election in Kentucky, 2014

The 2014 United States Senate election in Kentucky took place on November 4, 2014 to elect a member of the United States Senate to represent the Commonwealth of Kentucky, concurrently with elections to the United States Senate in other states and elections to the United States House of Representatives and various state and local elections.
Incumbent Republican Senator Mitch McConnell, the Senate Minority Leader, ran for re-election to a sixth term. He faced Democratic nominee and Kentucky Secretary of State Allison Lundergan Grimes and Libertarian nominee David Patterson in the general election.
The race was initially considered one of the most competitive in the 2014 election year. The Cook Political Report considered the race a toss up and the Rothenberg Political Report considered the race to "lean Republican." McConnell ultimately defeated Grimes by a significant margin.
==Republican primary==
Immediately after a secret recording of Mitch McConnell and his campaign staff was released to ''Mother Jones'', McConnell expressed concerns about what he saw as a threat from the left. David Adams, a Kentucky Tea Party activist who was seeking a Republican opponent to McConnell, told ''The New York Times'' that McConnell's fears about "threats from the left" were misplaced. Adams said: "It's going to come from the right. The fact that he's coming unglued about this thing should make clear to observers that he may not be ready for the challenge that lies ahead."
McConnell won the primary with 60.2% of the vote. According to analysis by the University of Minnesota, this is the lowest voter support for a Kentucky U.S. Senator in a primary by either party since 1938.
