She was defeated by Socialist politician László Kiss in the 2014 parliamentary election. Before the election, it was revealed that Menczer's son and his fiancée were received municipal flats illegally by the local government in Békásmegyer.

Later in March 2014, the Democratic Coalition (DK) accused that one of their activists was physically assaulted by Menczer during a campaign event. Menczer denied and refused the charges.
