The 2014 United States Senate elections, to be held November 4, 2014, will give Republicans an opportunity to win a majority in the chamber. Prior to this election Dems hold a 55-45 advantage (including an independent voting with the Dems).

Six incumbent Dems have announced their retirement rather than run for relection, in these states:

  • Iowa
  • Michigan
  • Montana
  • New Jersey
  • South Dakota
  • West Virginia

In addition, two Republican incumbents are retiring: Saxby Chambliss (Georgia) and Mike Johanns (Nebraska), which will lead to spirited Republican primary contests in those states.
