This was one of the seven Democratic-held Senate seats up for election in a state that Mitt Romney won in the 2012 presidential election. After facing only Green Party opposition in 2008, incumbent Democratic Senator Mark Pryor sought re-election to a third term in 2014. He was unopposed in the Democratic primary; U.S. Representative Tom Cotton was also unopposed for the Republican nomination. While the race was initially expected to be close, Cotton prevailed by a margin of 56% to 39%.November 4, 2014 Arkansas General Election and Nonpartisan Runoff Election OFFICIAL RESULTS https://results.enr.clarityelections.com/AR/53237/149792/Web01/en/summary.html 8 September 2022 4 November 2014 The Associated Press called the race for Cotton immediately after the polls closed.https://www.politico.com/story/2014/11/arkansas-senate-results-elections-2014-tom-cotton-mark-pryor-112515.html Cotton defeats Pryor in Arkansas Katie Glueck POLITICO Cotton's margin exceeded almost all published opinion polling; for most of the cycle, it was seen as one of the most competitive races in the nation. This is the last time a senator from Arkansas lost re-election. Since Cotton took office in 2015, Republicans have held both of Arkansas' Senate seats and the state's entire congressional delegation, both of which had not happened since 1877. Pryor drew many comparisons to Blanche Lincoln, also a Democratic senator from Arkansas who was ultimately unseated in 2010, with Pryor having a similar fate. Elected at age 37, Cotton surpassed Connecticut's Chris Murphy as the youngest incumbent senator at that time and remained so until the seating of Missouri’s Josh Hawley at the opening of the 116th United States Congress. Background Arkansas Attorney General Mark Pryor was first elected to the Senate in 2002, defeating first-term Republican incumbent Tim Hutchinson. He was re-elected with 80% of the vote in 2008 as he was unopposed by a Republican candidate. He faced competition only from Green Party nominee Rebekah Kennedy, who won the largest share of the vote of any Green Party candidate in a Senate race in history.http://www.greenpartywatch.org/2008/11/06/rebekah-kennedy-pulls-record-results-for-us-senate https://web.archive.org/web/20090105194944/http://www.greenpartywatch.org/2008/11/06/rebekah-kennedy-pulls-record-results-for-us-senate/ usurped January 5, 2009 Blog Archive » Rebekah Kennedy Pulls Record Results for U.S. Senate - America's #1 Source for Green Party News & Views Green Party Watch November 7, 2008 September 4, 2010 Of the 88 previous occasions when an incumbent senator was re-elected without major party opposition and then went on to contest the following general election, all 88 were re-elected.http://editions.lib.umn.edu/smartpolitics/2013/08/05/mark-pryor-could-face-historic Mark Pryor Could Face Historic Defeat in 2014 Smart Politics Eric Ostermeier August 5, 2013 Heading into the 2014 Cotton vs. Pryor matchup, only 17 House freshmen had been elected to the U.S. Senate over the last century, and just two in the last 40 years.http://editions.lib.umn.edu/smartpolitics/2013/03/20/tom-cottons-quandary-can-house Tom Cotton's Quandary: Can House Freshmen Win Senate Seats?
