Campaign themes
2014
McDonald's website highlighted the following campaign themes:

- Government
- Excerpt: "I believe our policy makers should be accountable for responsible spending, balancing budgets and working to lower taxes by making better choices in legislation and creating an attractive business environment, economic growth and job opportunities."
- Health Care
- Excerpt: "I believe in a free market system that allows people to buy the health insurance they want and need and that allows market competition between health insurance providers that will result in more choices for plans at lower costs."
- Educational Opportunities, Solving the Student Loan Crisis

Elections for the Alabama House of Representatives took place in 2014. A primary election took place on June 3, 2014; a runoff election took place where necessary on July 15, 2014. The general election was held on November 4, 2014. The signature filing deadline for candidates wishing to run in this election was February 7, 2014. Doug Clark, Arnold Mooney, Amie Beth Shaver, Cheryl Ciamarra, John Bahakel, Gina McDonald, and Don Murphy faced off in the Republican primary. Because no candidate received more than 50 percent of the vote, the top two vote-getters - Mooney and Shaver - met in a runoff election, which Mooney won.[1] Mooney was unchallenged in the general election.[2][3][4][5]
