United States Senate elections, 2022 (Owen's version)

Elections to the United States Senate were held on November 8, 2022 with 34 of the 100 seats in the Senate being contested in regular elections, the winners of which will serve six-year terms in the United States Congress from January 3, 2023 to January 3, 2029. All class III Senators were up for election; class 3 was last up for election in 2016, when Democrats won a net gain of two seats. Democrats had to defend 12 seats, while Republicans had to defend 22 seats.

In this Senate election, Democrats had needed to have a net gain of 8 seats to gain a supermajority, which would be the first time since 2009 that they had that many seats. Republicans needed to net gain 3 seats. Ultimately, in a surprising final result, Democrats had a net gain of 9 seats in the Senate which gave them a supermajority for the first time since 2009. Following this year of elections, it was the first time since 1979 that Democrats held a supermajority in both houses of Congress. The widespread Democratic wins were attributed to President Trump's fairly high disapproval. This was also the second election in a row in which a party leader faced a significant challenge, only that Schumer defeated President Trump's daughter, Ivanka Trump. This was the closest Senate race in the state of New York since Hillary Clinton defeated Rick Lazio in 2000.
