The 2002 United States Senate election in Kansas was held on November 4, 2002. Incumbent Republican U.S. Senator Pat Roberts won re-election to a second term overwhelmingly. No Democrats filed to run, and Roberts was only opposed by a Libertarian candidate and a Reform Party candidate. This was the only United States Senate election in Kansas in which Pat Roberts won every county in the state.
