The 1924 United States Senate election in Colorado took place on November 4, 1924. Republican Senator Lawrence C. Phipps ran for re-election to a second term. Senator Alva B. Adams, who held the other Senate seat, opted not to run for re-election in the special election, and instead decided to challenge Phipps for re-election. Adams's gambit turned out to be unsuccessful, as he lost to Phipps by roughly the same margin as Democrats lost the special election.
