Elections for the Portland City Council were scheduled for November 4, 2014. A primary election took place on May 20, 2014. Because both districts had a candidate claim more than 50 percent of the vote in the May 20 primary, the general election was called off.
The filing deadline for candidates wishing to run in this election was March 11, 2014.[1] Two of the four city council seats were up for election.
Incumbents Nick Fish and Dan Saltzman both won re-election to the council.
