The 1960 United States Senate election in Arkansas took place on November 8, 1960. Incumbent Democratic U.S. Senator John L. McClellan was re-elected to a fourth term in office.
Because McClellan faced only token opposition in the general election, his unopposed victory in the July 26 primary was tantamount to election.
