The 1984 United States Senate election in Nebraska was held on November 6, 1984. Incumbent Democratic Senator J. James Exon ran for re-election to a second term. He was challenged by Nancy Hoch, the Republican nominee and a member of the University of Nebraska Board of Regents. Owing in part to President Ronald Reagan's landslide victory over Democratic challenger Walter Mondale in the state, Exon only narrowly defeated Hoch, winning 52% of the vote.
