The 2008 Wyoming Senate election was held on November 4, 2008, to elect members to the Wyoming Senate for its 60th session as part of the 2008 United States elections. All even-numbered seats were up for election. An additional election was held in District 27 as incumbent Republican John Barrasso retired in 2007 after being appointed to the U.S. Senate. Partisan primaries were held on August 19. Neither party gained any seat in the legislature, and both Democratic incumbents stood unopposed in the general election.
