The 2012 United States Senate election in Wisconsin will take place on November 6, 2010 alongside a U.S. Presidential election as well as other elections to the United States Senate and House of Representatives as well as various state and local elections.

On November 7, 2006, four-term incumbent Democratic U.S. senator Herb Kohl was re-elected to his fourth consecutive six-year term against Robert Lorge after receiving 67.3% of the vote.

Kohl has not announced whether or not he will run for a fifth term. His lack of fundraising might be an indication of his retirement. Kohl also might decide to retire due to his colleague's, Russ Feingold's, loss for his re-election bid although Mike Tate, chairman of the Wisconsin Democratic Party, has dismissed speculation regarding Kohl's potential retirement.
