The 2000 Arizona Senate election was held on November 7, 2000. Voters elected members of the Arizona Senate in all 30 of the state's legislative districts to serve a two-year term. Primary elections were held on September 12, 2000.
Prior to the elections, the Republicans held a majority of 16 seats over the Democrats' 14 seats.
Following the election, a 15âÂÂ15 tie forced a power sharing agreement between Democrats and Republicans, a net gain of one seat for Democrats.
