The 2014 South Dakota Attorney General election was held on November 4, 2014. Incumbent Marty Jackley successfully ran for a second full term after first being appointed to the position in 2009. The Democratic Party did not run a candidate, and Jackley beat Chad Haber of the Libertarian Party in a landslide.

The Libertarian Party ran a negative campaign, accusing Jackley of large-scale corruption. Haber is the husband of former U.S. Senate candidate Annette Bosworth, who was, at the time, being investigated by the Attorney General's office on 12 felony election law charges. A year after the election, Haber still owed over $6,000 for multiple violations of campaign finance law.
