A statewide map of the 50 state Senate districts in the 1936 elections is provided by the Iowa General Assembly here.

The primary election on June 1, 1936 determined which candidates appeared on the November 3, 1936 general election ballot. [1] [2]

Following the previous election, Democrats had control of the Iowa state Senate with 28 seats to Republicans' 22 seats. Due to some vacancies and special elections, by election day 1936, Democrats held 26 seats to Republicans' 24. [lower-alpha 1]

To claim control of the chamber from Democrats, the Republicans needed to net 2 Senate seats.

Republicans gained control of the Iowa State Senate following the 1936 general election with the balance of power shifting to Republicans holding 28 seats and Democrats having 22 seats (a net gain of 4 seats for Republicans).

Valentine was succeeded by Democrat Hugh Guernsey following a special election (a hold of the district for Democrats). In district 5, Democratic Senator Frank M. Stevens was succeeded by Republican Howard W. Edwards following a special election (a gain of the district for Republicans). In district 14, Democratic Senator Lewis Tuttle Shangle was succeeded by Democrat Albert Earl Augustine following a special election (a hold of the district for Democrats). In district 18, Democratic Senator Charles E. Malone was succeeded by Republican Frank Pelzer following a special election (a gain of the district for Republicans). In district 28, Democratic Senator Chris Reese was succeeded by Republican Benjamin Chase Whitehill following a special election (a gain of the district for Republicans). In district 30, Republican Senator George A. Wilson was succeeded by Democrat James J. Gillespie (a gain of the district for Democrats). In district 37, Republican Senator Irving H. Knudson was succeeded by Republican George Raymond Hill following a special election (a hold of the district for Republicans).
