The 1988 United States Senate election in New York was held on November 8, 1988. Incumbent Democratic U.S. Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan won re-election to a third term in a landslide, versus Republican nominee Robert McMillan. McMillan, who ran a "low-budget" challenge to the two-term Senator, was largely ignored by Moynihan in the public sphere.[1]
