The 1948 United States Senate election in Wyoming was held on November 2, 1948. First-term Republican Senator Edward V. Robertson ran for re-election to a second term. He was challenged in the general election by Democrat Lester C. Hunt, the Governor of Wyoming. Aided in part by President Harry S. Truman's narrow victory in Wyoming over Republican Thomas E. Dewey, and with his own record of winning statewide in Wyoming, Hunt defeated Robertson in a landslide. However, Hunt would not serve a full term in the Senate; he died by suicide on June 19, 1954 and Republican Edward D. Crippa was appointed to replace him.
The 1952 United States Senate election in Wyoming took place November 4, 1952. Incumbent Democratic Senator Joseph C. O'Mahoney ran for his fourth consecutive term. He faced a strong challenge from Republican Governor Frank A. Barrett, and faced difficult headwinds as Dwight D. Eisenhower, the Republican nominee for President, was winning Wyoming in a landslide over Democratic nominee Adlai Stevenson. Despite his history of strong performances in the increasingly conservative state, however, O'Mahoney was unable to replicate it, and narrowly lost to Barrett. However, O'Mahoney would return to the Senate less than two years later; following the death of Senator Lester C. Hunt, he was elected to the Senate once again in the 1954 election.

In the general election, even though the Republican Party had a strong performance nationwide, Wyoming Democrats did well; Hunt defeated Wright by a wider margin than his 1942 victory as Democratic U.S. Senator Joseph C. O'Mahoney similarly won another term.
