The 2022 Missouri Senate election took place on Tuesday, November 8, 2022, with the primary election held on Tuesday, August 2, 2022. Missouri voters selected state senators in the 17 even-numbered districts of the Senate to serve four-year terms.

The election coincided with United States national elections and Missouri state elections, including U.S. Senate, U.S. House, Auditor, and Missouri House.

Following the previous election in 2020, Republicans held a 24-to-10-seat supermajority over Democrats. The balance of power remained unchanged with Republicans keeping their supermajority of 24-to-10 over Democrats.

These were the first elections in Missouri following the 2020 United States redistricting cycle, which resulted in redrawn legislative district boundaries.
