The 1962 United States Senate election in Wisconsin was held on November 6, 1962. Incumbent Republican U.S. senator Alexander Wiley ran for re-election to a fifth term in office but was defeated by Democratic governor Gaylord A. Nelson. This was the first time since 1897 that Democrats held both Senate seats in the state.[1]
