The 2024 United States Senate election in Connecticut was held on November 5, 2024, to elect a member of the United States Senate to represent the state of Connecticut. Primary elections took place on August 13, 2024.[1] Incumbent Democratic Senator Chris Murphy won re-election to a third term with 55.95% of the vote in a rematch with his 2018 opponent Matthew Corey. This was the first Senate election that Murphy did not carry Windham County.
Although Murphy comfortably won re-election by a 13% margin, this represented a substantial decrease from his 20% win in 2018.
