The 2014 Ohio Attorney General election was held on November 4, 2014, concurrently with other statewide offices including the Gubernatorial election. Incumbent Republican Attorney General and former 2-term United States Senator Mike DeWine was challenged by former member of the Hamilton County, Ohio Board of Commissioners and candidate for Auditor in 2010 David Pepper. DeWine won in a landslide, winning 61% of the vote to Pepper's 38%, a 23-point margin of victory.

To date, this along with many other concurrently held statewide races is the last time Franklin County voted Republican.
