1958 United States Senate special election in West Virginia
County resultsRandolph : 50–60% 60–70% 70–80%Hoblitzell : 50–60% 60–70% 70–80%
The 1958 United States Senate special election in West Virginia was held on November 4, 1958, concurrent with a regular election . The election was called due to the death of Senator Matthew M. Neely .
Democrats Randolph and Byrd both won their seats, amid a national wave election . This would be the last time that Democrats simultaneously flipped both of a state's Senate seats until Georgia's elections in 2020 and 2021, and the last for either party until the 1978 elections in Minnesota.

While campaigning with Robert C. Byrd , Randolph was involved in a car accident, veering into oncoming traffic and killing another driver. According to the testimony of Byrd, Randolph fell asleep at the wheel and woke up shortly before hitting the other driver.[1] Wetzel County prosecutor Jack Hawkins declined to file charges,[2] [3]
