The 2004 Kentucky Senate election was held on November 2, 2004. The Republican and Democratic primary elections were held on May 18. Half of the senate (all odd-numbered seats) were up for election. Republicans maintained their majority in the chamber without gaining or losing any seats. A numbered map of the senate districts at the time can be viewed here.

Republicans had initially flipped district 37, but the results were voided when the candidate who won the election was determined to be ineligible to serve. Democrats retained that seat in a February 2006 special election.
