Primary: He was successful in the primary on May 6, 2014, receiving 36.6 percent of the vote. He competed against incumbent Justice Robin Hudson and Jeanette Kathleen Doran.
General: He was defeated in the general election on November 4, 2014, after receiving 47.5 percent of the vote. He competed against incumbent Robin Hudson.This was the only supreme court race in North Carolina that included a primary election. With two Republican candidates--Levinson and Doran--in the primary, voter turnout from that party was expected to be high.
