United States Senate elections, 1942

The United States Senate elections of 1942 were held November 3, 1942, midway through Franklin Roosevelt's third term as President. Although this election took place during World War II, the opposition Republican party made major gains, taking eight seats from the Democrats and one from an independent. Various commentators have ascribed this to anger with the administration over Pearl Harbor, general irritation with the conditions of wartime, or the defeat of weak Democratic incumbents from the 1936 election. The Democrats nonetheless retained a significant majority.
== Gains and losses ==
Republicans captured open seats in Delaware, South Dakota, and West Virginia.
They also defeated the sole Independent incumbent, George W. Norris of Nebraska, as well as five Democratic incumbents:
* Clyde L. Herring (Iowa)
* Prentiss M. Brown (Michigan)
* William H. Smathers (New Jersey)
* Josh Lee (Oklahoma)
* Harry H. Schwartz (Wyoming)
