The 1990 Arizona Senate election was held on November 6, 1990. Voters elected members of the Arizona Senate in all 30 of the state's legislative districts to serve a two-year term. Primary elections were held on September 11, 1990.[3]

Prior to the elections, the Republicans held a majority of 17 seats over the Democrats' 13 seats.

Following the election, Democrats flipped control of the chamber and took a majority of 17 Democrats to 13 Republicans, a net gain of four seats for Democrats.[4]

The newly elected senators served in the 40th Arizona State Legislature.
