The 1932 United States Senate election in Kansas was held on November 8, 1932. Incumbent Democratic Senator George McGill, who was first elected in a 1930 special election, ran for re-election to his first full term. McGill defeated former U.S. Representative Chauncey B. Little in the Democratic primary and faced former Governor Benjamin S. Paulen, the Republican nominee, in the general election, along with independent candidates George Alfred Brown and J. F. William Renker and Socialist nominee E. Haldeman-Julius. McGill ultimately won re-election, winning 46% of the vote to Paulen's 42% and Brown's 9%, marking what is to date the last Democratic victory in a U.S. Senate election in Kansas.
