The 1914 United States Senate election in Oklahoma took place on November 3, 1914. Incumbent Senator Thomas Gore, a Democrat, sought re-election in his first popular election. He was challenged by Republican nominee John H. Burford, a former Justice on the Territorial Oklahoma Supreme Court; Socialist nominee Patrick S. Nargle, a former U.S. Marshal; and Progressive nominee William O. Cromwell, the former State Attorney General. Despite the fact that the left-leaning vote was split several ways in the election, Gore won re-election in a landslide, receiving 48% of the vote to Burford's 29, Nagle's 21%, and Cromwell's 2%.
