Joseph Gilbert, the former emergency services director for St. Lawrence County and a local Tea Party activist, withdrew from the Republican primary on April 11, 2014, due to personal and family problems. He may still run in the general election under the banner of the Constitution Party if he can resolve those problems by June.[64] Doheny and Stefanik also sought the Conservative and Independence Party nominations.[3] Stefanik won the Conservative endorsement[65] and Doheny won the Independence nomination, but after he lost the Republican primary, announced his support for Stefanik.[66] He was eventually removed from the ballot and Stefanik took the Independence Party nomination.[67]
