The city of Austin held elections for city council on November 4, 2014. The candidate filing deadline was August 18, 2014. Because of redistricting and term limits, there was no incumbent for District 1.[2] The candidates were Andrew Bucknall, Michael D. Cargill, George Hindman, Ora Houston, Christopher J. Hutchins, Norman A. Jacobson, DeWayne Lofton, Valerie M. Menard and Samuel A. Osemene.[3] Because no candidate received more than 50 percent of the vote in the general election, the top two vote-getters - Houston and Lofton - faced each other in a runoff election on December 16, 2014.[4] Houston was the winner.[5]
