The 1914 United States Senate election in South Dakota took place on November 3, 1914. Incumbent Senator Coe I. Crawford, a Republican, sought re-election in his first popular election. He was defeated in the Republican primary by Congressman Charles H. Burke, the House Minority Whip. In the general election, he was narrowly defeated by Edwin S. Johnson, the 1912 Democratic nominee for Governor, who won a narrow plurality. Edwin Stockton Johnson became the first Democrat ever to have been elected to the United States Senate from South Dakota and the first non-Republican to have been elected to the United States Senate from South Dakota since James Henderson Kyle in 1897.
