The 2024 Massachusetts State Senate election was held on Tuesday, November 5, 2024, with the primary election held on Tuesday, September 3, 2024. [1] Massachusetts voters elected all 40 members of the State Senate to serve two-year terms in the Massachusetts General Court. [2] The election coincided with United States national elections and Massachusetts state elections, including U.S. Senate, U.S. House, U.S. President, and Massachusetts House. [3]

Contents

Democrats started the 2023 legislative session with 37 members. However, Democratic Senator Anne Gobi resigned on June 4, 2023 and Republican Peter Durant won the subsequent special election, flipped the district for his party, and assumed office on November 29, 2023. [4] [5] Therefore, Democrats hold a supermajority of 36 seats compared to the four seats held by Republicans. Republicans would have to net 17 seats to flip control of the chamber. [6]

Retirements

Three incumbents did not seek re-election.

Democrats

  1. 3rd Bristol and Plymouth: Marc Pacheco retired. [7]
  2. Norfolk, Plymouth and Bristol: Walter Timilty retired to run for Norfolk County Clerk of Courts. [8]
  3. Plymouth and Barnstable: Susan Moran retired to run for Barnstable County Clerk of Courts. [9]

Predictions

Due to the size of the Democrats' majority and the low number of competitive seats, most analysts consider a change in control of the chamber to be unlikely.
