The August 26, 2014, general election in Volusia County featured three seats up for election. Larry Candeto, John M. Hill, Don Sarro, Chris Sorensen and Patricia W. Whites were running to replace Candace Lankford, who did not file for the District 1 election. None of the five candidates received 50 percent of the vote, so John M. Hill and Don Sarro, the top two vote-getters, advanced to the runoff election on November 4, 2014. The District 3 race was determined by the runoff election as well, featuring candidates Linda Cuthbert and George Trovato, who received more votes than incumbent Stan Schmidt in the general election. In the District 5 race, challenger Melody Johnson defeated incumbent Diane J. Smith.
