West Virginia's 14th Senate district is one of 17 districts in the West Virginia Senate. It is currently represented by Republicans Randy Smith and Jay Taylor.[2][3] All districts in the West Virginia Senate elect two members to staggered four-year terms.
District 14 is located at the base of the state's Eastern Panhandle, covering all of Barbour, Hardy, Preston, Taylor, and Tucker Counties, as well as parts of Grant, Mineral, and Monongalia Counties. Communities within the district include Philippi, Belington, Grafton, Brookhaven, Kingwood, Terra Alta, Parsons, Keyser, and Moorefield.[4]
The district is largely within West Virginia's 1st congressional district, with a small portion extending into the 2nd district. It overlaps with the 47th, 48th, 49th, 51st, 52nd, 53rd, 54th, 55th, and 56th districts of the West Virginia House of Delegates.[5] It borders the states of Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Virginia.[1]
