The 1994 Maryland Senate election were held on November 8, 1994, to elect senators in all 47 districts of the Maryland Senate. Members were elected in single-member constituencies to four-year terms. These elections were held concurrently with various federal and state elections, including for Governor of Maryland.

Republicans picked up six seats from the Democrats by tying themselves to the tax-cutting debate surrounding the gubernatorial election between Parris Glendening and Ellen Sauerbrey. This strategy was especially effective in Montgomery County, where Republicans campaigned on the county only getting 52 cents for every dollar in tax revenue it contributed to the state. The elections were marked by the legislature's highest turnover rate since 1974, which gave Republicans their largest legislative gains since the 1950s.[1]
