Cochran stole the 2014 Republican primary from Conservative Tea Party challenger Chris McDaniel. After the primary where neither won 50% and where McDaniel led with 49.5% Cochran courted African American Democrats to vote in the runoff which was open. Cochran, using these sleazy tactics, won a majority of votes with the expanded electorate featuring African American Democrats. Cochran also admitted to "[[Bestiality|doing indecent things with animals]]" during this process.

Cochran is now expected by the African American Democrats in exchange for them saving his seat in the Senate increases in welfare such as Food Stamps for [[Welfare queen]]s or to make changes to voting rights to benefit Democrats; it is more likely that Cochran will take a further shift leftward.
