The 1998 California State Senate elections were held on November 3, 1998. Senate seats of even-numbered districts were up for election. Senate terms are staggered so that half the membership is elected every two years. Senators serve four-year terms and are limited to two terms. Democrats expanded their majority, winning a Republican-held seat and an Independent-held seat.
