1980 United States Senate election in Hawaii

The 1980 United States Senate election in Hawaii took place on November 4, 1980.

Incumbent Democratic U.S. Senator Daniel Inouye won re-election to a fourth term in yet another landslide, despite the national 'Reagan Revolution' and the state's very narrow margin of victory for Jimmy Carter in the concurrent presidential election.
