U.S. Representative before election Tim Bishop Democratic Elected U.S. Representative Lee Zeldin Republican

The 1st district was located in eastern Long Island and includes most of central and eastern Suffolk County. The incumbent Democrat Tim Bishop, who had represented the district since 2003, ran for re-election. He was re-elected with 52% of the vote in 2012, and the district had a PVI of R+2.

• Tim Bishop, incumbent U.S. Representative

Bishop also received the Independence and Working Families nominations.^[3]

County Republican committees designated State Senator Lee Zeldin, who was the nominee for the seat in 2008, as their nominee. On June 24, 2014, Zeldin defeated former prosecutor George Demos, who had challenged him in a primary.^[4][5]

• Lee Zeldin, state senator and nominee for this seat in 2008^[6]

• George Demos, former Securities and Exchange Commission prosecutor and candidate for this seat in 2010^[7]

Zeldin also received the Conservative nomination.

In September 2013, the Office of Congressional Ethics recommended further review of an August 2012 incident in which Bishop was accused of soliciting a campaign contribution from hedge fund magnate Eric Semler in exchange for acting in an official capacity to obtain a fireworks permit for Semler's son's bar mitzvah on Long Island.^[14][15] Bishop denied the allegations as "outrageous, unfounded attacks on my character and my family".^[16] After the incident was picked up by the media, Semler called the allegations a "nonstory".

Despite the Federal Bureau of Investigation investigating the incident,^[17] in September the Justice Department closed its investigation without filing charges.^[18]

However, the NRCC and other right wing groups exploited the incident to paint Bishop as a corrupt Washington insider.^[19]
