The 1926 Iowa State Senate elections took place as part of the biennial 1926 United States elections. Iowa voters elected state senators in 21 of the state senate's 50 districts. State senators serve four-year terms in the Iowa State Senate.

A statewide map of the 50 state Senate districts in the 1926 elections is provided by the Iowa General Assembly here.

The primary election on June 7, 1926 determined which candidates appeared on the November 2, 1926 general election ballot.[1][2]

Following the previous election, Republicans had control of the Iowa state Senate with 45 seats, the Democrats had 4 seats, and 1 seat was held by an independent.

Republicans maintained control of the Iowa State Senate following the 1926 general election with the balance of power shifting to Republicans holding 49 seats and Democrats having 1 seat (a net gain of 4 seats for Republicans).
