The 1932 United States Senate election in New Hampshire took place on November 8, 1932. Incumbent Republican Senator George H. Moses ran for re-election to a third full term but was defeated by Democratic former governor Fred H. Brown. Although the state voted for incumbent Republicans Herbert Hoover and John G. Winant in the concurrent presidential election and gubernatorial election, respectively, Moses ran significantly behind the top of the ticket and was narrowly defeated by Brown. The result was attributed to Brown's personal popularity and Moses's age.
