2014 Liberal Democrats deputy leadership election
The 2014 Liberal Democrats deputy leadership election began on 18 December 2013, when the incumbent Deputy Leader of the Liberal Democrats, Simon Hughes, was appointed Minister of State at the Ministry of Justice, and opted to resign his party position to focus on his new post.


2014 Liberal Democrats deputy leadership election
The post was elected by and from the party's 55 Members of Parliament in the House of Commons, who voted on 28 January 2014. (57 Liberal Democrat MPs had been elected at the previous general election, but at the time of the vote, both David Ward and Mike Hancock had had the whip withdrawn.) Lorely Burt was seen as the front-runner, yet veteran MP Sir Malcolm Bruce, who had already announced that he would be standing down at the May 2015 general election, was elected as Deputy Leader on the second round of voting.

The election coincided with the conclusion of Alistair Webster QC's report on the allegations of sexual harassment surrounding the party's former Chief Executive Lord Rennard, and in the weeks leading up to it, the party received extensive coverage surrounding sexual harassment claims against senior party figures including Lord Rennard, MP Mike Hancock, and AM William Powell.

Accordingly, numerous media commentators noted that it appeared highly likely the party would seek to offset criticism of its treatment of women by electing the frontrunner Burt as the party's first woman Deputy Leader, and after receiving 24 nominations, she was described as "the firm favourite". Consequently, some expressed surprise at Burt's defeat by Bruce, with the Daily Express branding the result "a blunder of Olympian proportions" which left the party open to accusations of being "pale, male and stale".

Two coup d'état attempts were reported to have been made in 2014 by forces loyal to Maj. Gen. Khalifa Haftar, the commander of Libyan Ground Forces.


2014 Libyan coup d'état attempts, February 2014
Haftar reportedly took control of Libya's main institutions on the morning of 14 February, before announcing on TV that he had suspended the General National Congress, the government and the Constitutional Declaration. Haftar claimed to be working in the name of the Libyan Republican Alliance, and also that forces loyal to him were in Tripoli, although he also stressed that he was not attempting a coup, but "a correction to the path of the revolution."


2014 Libyan coup d'état attempts, February 2014, Reaction
In spite of the declaration according to the Independent there appeared to be minimal military presence in Tripoli, a claim supported by Reuters. The US ambassador to Libya, Safira Deborah, also released a statement claiming there appeared to be no substance to Haftar's declaration.


2014 Libyan coup d'état attempts, February 2014, Reaction
Libyan Defence Minister Abdullah Al-Thinni, responding to the declaration, claimed that Haftar's claim to forces loyal to him being in Tripoli was a lie, and also alleged that Haftar had no legitimacy. Thinni also reiterated that there was a warrant out for Haftar's arrest on the grounds of plotting a coup d'état.


2014 Libyan coup d'état attempts, February 2014, Reaction
Similarly Prime Minister Zeidan announced on public television that "We won't let anyone hijack the Libyan revolution," adding that the Military Command, with help of pro-government militias, has ordered Haftar's arrest.


2014 Libyan coup d'état attempts, May 2014

The Libyan Central Commission of Municipal Council Elections, headed by Salem Bentahia as of March 2019, is responsible for elections for the 120 local councils that were created in 2013.


2014 Libyan local elections, Election
The 2014 municipal elections were held at a cost of 65,000,000 Libyan dinars and were generally perceived as democratic. The councils resulting from the 2014 elections were seen by Libyans, as of 2018, as "the most trustworthy and legitimate elected bodies" in Libya.


2014 Libyan local elections, Election, 2016 removal of elected mayors
In late 2016, Major-General Abdul Razzaq Al-Nazhuri of the Libyan National Army (LNA) replaced several of the elected municipal mayors in eastern Libya with unelected people, mostly military.

2014 Libyan parliamentary election
Parliamentary elections were held in Libya on 25 June 2014 for the House of Representatives. Whilst all candidates ran as independents, the elections saw nationalist and liberal factions win the majority of seats, with Islamist groups being reduced to only around 30 seats. Election turnout was very low at 18%.


2014 Libyan parliamentary election
After the election was complete, two constitutional claims were brought before the Libyan Supreme Court (LSC). On 7 November 2014 the LSC ruled the amendment to Article 11 of paragraph 30 of the Constitutional Declaration invalid, which set out the road map for Libya's transition and the House elections. This in extension invalidated the entire legislative and elective process leading to the establishment of the House including the election. Therefore, this meant the House was effectively dissolved.


2014 Libyan parliamentary election
Due to controversy about constitutional amendments the House refused to take office from General National Congress (GNC) in Tripoli, which was controlled by powerful militias from the western coastal city of Misrata. Instead, they established their parliament in Tobruk.


2014 Libyan parliamentary election
The international community through the United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) announced recognition of the House and thus ignored the Supreme Court ruling. It was seen as unrealistic at the time to dissolve the House.


2014 Libyan parliamentary election, Background
The General National Congress was elected in July 2012, with the responsibility of forming a constituent assembly to write the constitution. However, the National Transitional Council decided that Libyans would instead directly elect the constituent assembly. The General National Congress came to agreement on 10 April 2013 that constituent assembly members would be elected; the election for most of the constituent assembly took place on 20 February 2014.


2014 Libyan parliamentary election, Background
On 25 May 2014, the General National Congress set 25 June 2014 as the date for elections to the House of Representatives. Article 16 of the Electoral Law voted by the GNC on 30 March 2014 with 124 votes in favour out of 133, allocated 30 seats for women, and 200 seats overall, with individuals able to run as members of political parties, but without party lists, and declared Libyans with a second nationality to be eligible.


2014 Libyan parliamentary election, Electoral system
The 200 seats were elected in 13 constituencies divided into 75 sub-constituencies. In an attempt to reduce tensions, all candidates contested the election as individuals, instead of running on party lists.


2014 Libyan parliamentary election, Conduct, Turnout
I didn't bother to register this time around, and that should tell you everything. My friends were killed in the revolution, we paid in blood for this democracy, but what was the result of the [previous] election? Candidates make big promises, but when they get the power, nothing.


2014 Libyan parliamentary election, Conduct, Turnout
Turnout was a mere 18%, down from 60% in the first post-Gaddafi election of July 2012, with only 630,000 people voting. Barely a third of Libya's 3.4 million eligible voters had registered for the country's Constitutional Assembly election in February. "Declining enthusiasm reflects growing disgust with the authorities' failure to govern," said The Economist.


2014 Libyan parliamentary election, Conduct, Turnout
No voting took place in Derna, which had been the scene of a campaign of bombings and assassinations from radical Islamist groups based there. Some polling stations were also closed in Kufra and Sabha for security reasons.


2014 Libyan parliamentary election, Conduct, Violence
There were several instances of violence on the day of the election, with at least five people dying in clashes between government forces and militants in Benghazi. According to security officials the deaths happened when Islamist insurgents opened fire on a local security headquarters, with the violence resulting in at least another 30 people being wounded.


2014 Libyan parliamentary election, Conduct, Violence
In a separate incident Human Rights activist Salwa Bughaighis was shot dead at her Benghazi home after having returned home from voting. Her attackers were reportedly hooded and were wearing military uniforms. Bughaighis, a native of Benghazi, was a lawyer by profession and had three children. She had played an active role in the overthrow of Gaddafi and had served as a member of Libya's interim National Transitional Council.


2014 Libyan parliamentary election, Results
The results were announced on 22 July 2014. All 1,714 candidates stood as independents as party lists were forbidden under the electoral system. Of the 200 seats up for election, 188 were announced on 22 July, with the announcement for the other 12 being delayed due to boycott or insecurity in some electoral districts. Most of the seats were taken by secular factions, with Islamists only winning around 30 seats. Some analysts immediately feared the results could reinvigorate fighting between secular and Islamist forces.


2014 Libyan parliamentary election, Results
On 12 August 2014, the parliament voted in favor of the Libyan head of state being directly elected, as opposed to being appointed by the House of Representatives. Of the Representatives present 141 voted in favour, with 2 opposing and 1 abstaining.


2014 Libyan parliamentary election, Results
After the Islamist coup of 23 August 2014, the parliament moved to the Operation Dignity stronghold of Tobruk.


2014 Libyan parliamentary election, Aftermath
In November, the Supreme Court annulled the election after an appeal by a group of unnamed MPs on unclear grounds. However, the appealing MPs asserted unconstitutionality as the parliament does not sit in Tripoli or Benghazi and that it had overstepped its authority by calling for foreign military assistance against the national infighting with the militias. Though it cannot be appealed, the Tobruk-based parliament rejected the ruling on the claim that it was delivered "under the threat of arms." MP Abu Bakr Baira added that the ruling was "baseless" and "a step towards dividing the country," he further said that the Tobruk-based parliament would not comply with it. It was met with celebratory gunfire in Tripoli, the seat of the rival and competing Islamist-dominated government.


2014 Libyan parliamentary election, Aftermath
In further developments, former leader Gaddafi's cousin, Ahmed Gaddaf al-Dam, said that once the "government's" forces regain control of major cities many of the exiled supporters of Gaddafi, who were in talks with parliament, would return to get "Libya back from this mess" and support a national reconciliation programme.

2014 Likud leadership election
A leadership election was held by the Likud party on 31 December 2014. It was won by incumbent Prime Minister and leader of Likud Benjamin Netanyahu.


2014 Likud leadership election, Background
Incumbent Benjamin Netanyahu was expected from the beginning to run for re-election. Leading an extremely fragile coalition, the Prime Minister wanted to shore up his internal support by holding an extremely early primary, years before the mandated date of a possible election. However, the government collapsed in December 2014, and an early election was mandated for 17 March 2015, over two years earlier than necessary.


2014 Likud leadership election, Timing
An early poll showed that the prime minister would lose to Gideon Sa'ar in the primary; so, Netanyahu asked the Likud Central Committee to move up the 6 January date to 31 December, to make sure that Sa'ar didn't have the time to mount a campaign. Sa'ar objected to the proposal.


2014 Likud leadership election, Timing
The motion was put to the 3,000 member central committee, who voted in a mini-referendum via secret ballot at ten polling stations throughout the country on 10 December 2014. While Likud did not release numbers, a spokesperson said 2,300 out of 3,700 eligible party members had cast ballots on the measure, which some saw as a litmus test of the prime minister's popularity within the party. After approval by Likud members, Likud's internal court moved the date of the election to 6 January 2015 because the vote lacked a two-thirds majority. Netanyahu appealed the decision. A panel of judges accepted the appeal on 17 December 2014, and allowed the primaries to occur on 31 December 2014.


2014 Likud leadership election, Candidates
Gideon Sa'ar was a prospective candidate, but he announced on 11 December 2014 that he will not stand for the party's leadership. MK Moshe Feiglin withdrew his candidacy on 18 December 2014, after the Likud court ruled that the primaries for prime minister and the Likud electoral list would occur simultaneously.


2014 Likud leadership election, Netanyahu qualification controversy
Shai Galili, the comptroller of the party, called for an investigative hearing which would focus on Netanyahu's supposed use of "party resources" to further his candidacy during the Likud primary; the hearing resulted in Netanyahu's disqualification as a candidate for both chairman and a place on the election list. Netanyahu was allowed to run.


2014 Likud leadership election, Polling
Early polls showed that the prime minister would lose to Gideon Sa'ar in the primary.


2014 Likud leadership election, Party list
In the primary vote for spots on the Likud's electoral list for the Knesset elections, incumbent MKs Moshe Feiglin and Tzipi Hotovely, both on the right-wing of the party, failed to win spots high enough on the list to realistically have a chance of being elected to the Knesset, while Internal Affairs minister Gilad Erdan won the second spot on the list, behind Nethanyahu, and Miri Regev rose to the 4th slot, up from 12th. Feiglin, who had held the 13th spot in the outgoing Knesset, fell to the unrealistic 36th position, and Hotovely fell from the 18th position to the 26th slot. Likud had 18 seats in the 19th Knesset, and internally expected to win a maximum of 24 seats in the next election.


2014 Likud leadership election, Party list
With all of the ballots counted, the top of the Likud's Knesset list will be as follows:

2014 Limerick City and County Council election
An election to Limerick City and County Council took place on 23 May 2014 as part of that year's Irish local elections. 40 councillors were elected from six electoral divisions by PR-STV voting for a five-year term of office. This is a new local authority which was formed out of a merger from the abolished Limerick City Council and Limerick County Councils.


2014 Limerick City and County Council election
Significantly Fianna Fáil emerged as the largest party on the Council after the elections despite being 3,838 first preference votes behind Fine Gael. The party won seats in Limerick city, historically a weak area for them in local elections. Its best results were in Cappaghmore-Kilmallock and Limerick City East where they secured 3 seats in each LEA. Fine Gael were disadvantaged by the merger of the 2 local authorities as they held many councillors on the old City Council and several of these Councillors were defeated under the new boundaries. However, the party won 3 seats in Newcastle West.


2014 Limerick City and County Council election
It was a very poor election for Labour as they just returned 1 seat in each of the 3 city LEAs just as did the Anti- Austerity Alliance. Sinn Féin sent a delegation of 6 councillors back to the new chamber to join their existing member Maurice Quinlivan. Independents secured the remaining 3 seats, 1 of which was Emmett O'Brien a former member of the Fianna Fáil National Executive. After the elections 4 of the Fianna Fáil members broke away to form an independent block over an internal disagreement over who should secure the Chairmanship of the Council.

2014 Loei gold mine mob attack
The 2014 Loei Gold Mine Mob Attack was an alleged attack by some 300 armed, masked men on villagers occupying three checkpoints blocking access to a controversial gold mine in the village of Ban Na Nong Bong, Khao Luang Sub-district, Wang Saphung District of Loei Province, Thailand. The attack took place on the night of 15 May 2014.


2014 Loei gold mine mob attack, Background
Residents of Na Nong Bong and five neighbouring villages have been embroiled in a long-running dispute with a gold mine operated by Tungkum Limited (TKL), a subsidiary of Tongkah Harbour PCL, after which they blocked the entrance road to the mine with trucks. The gold mine was accused of poisoning the villagers' land and water supplies and causing serious health problems.


2014 Loei gold mine mob attack, Background
About 300 men, wearing balaclavas and carrying sticks, knives and guns, went on the rampage in Ban Na Nong Bong from 22:00 on 15 May to 05:00 the following day. Wearing black and white ski masks and armed with guns, knives and clubs, up to 400 men rounded up and beat 40 people, including women, in the village near the northern border with Laos. They covered villagers' eyes, bound their ankles and wrists, and beat them. They treated us like we weren't human, one villager, Pauntip Hongchai, told Reuters. Yon Khunna, who was watchman for the village on Thursday night, said the men tied his hands and beat him up for hours. "I was released just at 4.30am  [sic]," he said.

Police were no help, showing up only after the fact, which didn't surprise the villagers who identified the leaders of the armed gang as Lt Gen Poramet Pomnak and his son Poramin.


2014 Loei gold mine mob attack, Background
Loei Governor Wirot Jiwarangsan said the latest incident resulted from a conflict between the mine operator and the villagers, making it sound like an attack by 300 thugs was something to be expected. The Bangkok Post hinted at military impunity and knowledge of the upcoming 2014 Thailand coup as factors fuelling the incident.


2014 Loei gold mine mob attack, Aftermath
In the village there has been little effort to restore the land and water quality to acceptable standards. The government reportedly planted a few trees that later died, and leveled the landscape. As for contaminated water, a governmental official explained that, even though it has been proved that there is contaminated water in Ban Na Nong Bong and that villagers blood contains high levels of heavy metals, it has not been shown that this is due to gold mining. The Pollution Control Department has not confirmed the cause of contamination, despite the correlation between cyanide in the mining process and cyanide in the water. They simply point out that mining can sometimes accelerate the surfacing of dangerous metals.
