Elections in Idaho |
---|
The 1962 United States Senate special election in Idaho took place on November 6, 1962, to elect a U.S. Senator to complete the unexpired term of Senator Henry Dworshak, who died on July 23, 1962.
Following his nomination for the special election by the Republican state committee, former Governor of Idaho Len Jordan was appointed on August 6, 1962 by Governor Robert E. Smylie to fill the vacancy until a special election could be held.
Jordan won the special election, narrowly defeating Democratic nominee Gracie Pfost.
