The 2006 United States Shadow Senator election in the District of Columbia took place on November 7, 2006, to elect a shadow member to the United States Senate to represent the District of Columbia. The member was only recognized by the District of Columbia and not officially sworn or seated by the United States Senate.

Incumbent Shadow Senator Florence Pendleton ran for reelection, but was unable to make it onto the ballot as she had only 1,559 valid signatures, short of the necessary 2,000. The Democratic primary was won by Michael Brown, who went on to secure an easy victory in the November general election.
