Whakaotihia te rerenga e whai ake nei: I te Paenga-whāwhā 8, 2014, i kii a Johnson kei te rere ia i te 2014 United States Senate whiringa motuhake i Oklahoma. I aro atu a Johnson ki a Patrick Hayes me te kaitono pumau a Jim Rogers. I mutu a Johnson i te tuatahi i roto i te pooti tuatahi a te Manapori me te maha, a ka aro atu ki a Rogers i te pooti tuarua. I whai painga a Rogers ki te mohio ki te ingoa e haere ana ki te pooti pooti, i puta mai i nga wa maha i runga i te pooti i Oklahoma. Ko Johnson, i te 8 tau i noho ai ki te Oklahoma State Senate hei kaiwhakawhiwhi korero mo te whare ture Republican, i kaha ki te whiwhi kaimahi pakanga mohio ki te whakarite i te wikitoria o te pooti pooti. I muri mai ka karapotia e te tautohetohe he whakawa angitu me te mema o te kaimahi a Johnson a Rico Smith. I tukuna e Smith tetahi kereme e kii ana kaore a Johnson i utu tika ki a ia kia rite ki te kirimana i hainatia e nga kaimahi o te kaupapa a Johnson. I whakaaetia taua kereme e te kōti. Ko te Kaiwhakahaere Whakataetae a Bailey Perkins, i whai muri i a Colletta Harper, me te Kaiwhakahaere Whakawhitiwhiti korero a James Cooper, he kairipoata, he kaiwhakaako hoki no Oklahoma City, me te Kaiwhakahaere Kaupapahere a David Roberts, he kaitohutohu tōrangapū tawhito me te 2008 o mua
I whakaotihia e tētahi kaimahi o Obama for America te hanganga whakahaere. Ko te mohio ki te ingoa o Rogers he iti noa ki te whawhai ki te rongonui o Johnson me te whakahaere kaupapa. I wikitoria a Johnson i te pooti tuarua, i hinga i a Rogers mo te 14 ōrau, ki te aro atu ki a Rep. James Lankford i te kaupapa pooti whānui. I hinga a Johnson i te pooti mo te wa e toe ana a Tom Coburn ki a James Lankford, na te 237,923 29.0% ki a Lankford's 557,002, 67.9%, me te kaitono motuhake a Mark Beard e kohikohi ana i nga pooti 25,965, 3.2% o te katoa. Ko Oklahoma te iti rawa o nga pooti i te whenua i nga pooti waenga-waahi o te tau 2014 me te 29% noa iho o nga kaitono kua rehitatia i pooti.
