United States Senate

Incumbent Republican Senator Saxby Chambliss is retiring rather than run for re-election to a third term in office.

Seven Republicans ran for their party's nomination: U.S. Representative Paul Broun, [36] patent attorney Art Gardner, [37] U.S. Representative Phil Gingrey, [38] conservative political activist Derrick E. Grayson, [39] former Secretary of State of Georgia Karen Handel, [40] U.S. Representative Jack Kingston [41] and Georgia Ports Authority board member David Perdue. [42] Perdue and Kingston came first and second, respectively in the primary. As no candidate won a majority, the two proceeded to a runoff. Perdue won the runoff by a narrow margin. [28]

Four Democrats ran for their party's nomination: former State Senator Steen Miles, [43] daughter of former U.S. Senator Sam Nunn and CEO of Points of Light Michelle Nunn, [44] physician Branko Radulovacki [45] and Reserve Officers' Training Corps instructor Todd Robinson. [46] Nunn easily won the Democratic nomination with almost 75% of the vote.

United States House of Representatives

All of Georgia's fourteen seats in the United States House of Representatives will be up for election in 2014.

The race in the 12th congressional district is considered by political prognosticators to be the most competitive. In addition, open seat contests in the 1st, 10th, and 11th districts featured competitive Republican primaries for seats held by retiring Republican incumbents. There was also a competitive Democratic primary in the 4th district. [47]
