1974 United States Senate elections (The Kennedy Legacy)

The 1974 United States Senate elections were elections for the United States Senate held on November 5, 1974 that coincided with the middle of Robert F. Kennedy's second term as President. While the United States benefited from a growing economy, an ongoing conflict between Egypt and Israel had escalated and all peace talks had failed, hurting the Democrats standing, resulting in the loss of two seats to the Republicans.
