The 1930 United States Senate election in Maine was held on September 8, 1930. Incumbent Republican U.S. Senator Arthur Gould, who had been elected to complete the term of the late Senator Bert Fernald, did not run for re-election to a full term.
In the Republican primary, U.S. Representative Wallace H. White Jr. defeated former Governor of Maine Owen Brewster. White easily won the general election over Democrat Frank Haskell.
White and Brewster would later serve together as Senate colleagues from 1941 to 1949.
