The 1954 United States Senate election in Mississippi was held on November 2, 1954. Incumbent Democratic U.S. Senator James Eastland won re-election to his third term.

Because Eastland faced only nominal opposition in the general election, his victory in the August 24 primary over Lieutenant Governor Carroll Gartin was tantamount to election.
