The 1948 United States Senate elections were held concurrently with the election of Democratic President Harry S. Truman for a full term. The 32 seats of Class 2 were contested in regular elections,and one special election was held to fill a vacancy. Truman campaigned against an "obstructionist" Congress that had blocked many of his initiatives,and additionally,the U.S. economy recovered from the postwar recession of 1946–1947 by election day. Thus,Truman was rewarded with a Democratic gain of nine seats in the Senate,enough to give them control of the chamber. This was the last time until 2020 that Democrats flipped a chamber of Congress in a presidential election cycle.
