The 2014 Iowa Senate election was held on November 4, 2014. The Senate seats for the twenty-five odd-numbered districts were up for election. Senate terms are staggered such that half the membership is elected every two years, with each senator serving a four-year term. Prior to the election, the Democrats were in the majority. They kept this majority after the election. As of 2025, this is the last time the Democrats won a majority in the Iowa Senate.
