IncumbentDemocratic SenatorRon Wyden was re-elected to a fourth full term in office. This is the first senate election since 1998 in whichCoos County has not supported him. This election also marks the most recent time any candidate from either major party swept all of Oregon's existing congressional districts in any statewide election. Uniquely, this election is also one of two to have featured a tie in the number of counties won by each of the major party candidates. The only other tie in number of counties won was the2012 United States Senate election in Wisconsin between Tammy Baldwin and Tommy Thompson.[1]
