The 2024 United States Senate election in Pennsylvania was held on November 5, 2024, to elect a member of the United States Senate to represent the state of Pennsylvania. Incumbent Democratic Senator Bob Casey Jr. ran for re-election to a fourth term against challenger Republican nominee Dave McCormick. The primary election took place on April 23, 2024.[2] The election was considered essential for Democrats' chances to retain the Senate majority in 2024.[3]

As of November 8, 2024, most major networks including ABC, CNN, CBS, and NBC have yet to call the race, due to approximately 100,000 absentee ballots waiting to be counted. The Associated Press and Fox News declared McCormick the winner.

Should McCormick win, with Democrats flipping Pennsylvania's other senate seat two years earlier, this election would be the most recent time a party would flip a senate seat in a state whose other seat was flipped by the opposition party in the previous election cycle. This previously occurred in Indiana in 2010 and 2012.
