The Nevada State Senate was a battleground chamber that Ballotpedia identified as having the opportunity to switch partisan control in 2014. The Nevada Senate had a difference in partisan balance between Democrats and Republican of one seat, which amounted to 9 percent of the seats up for election in 2014. District 8 in the Senate was identified by Ballotpedia and the Las Vegas Review-Journal as a battleground district that could have determined control of the Nevada State Senate.[5] Incumbent Barbara Cegavske (R), who did not seek re-election due to term limits, ran for Secretary of State. Democrats had the opportunity to pick up the seat, but Assembly member Marilyn Dondero Loop (D) was defeated by Patricia Farley (R) in the general election.
