- ↑ Democrat Yvonne B. Miller (District 5) died.
- ↑ Democrat Kenny Alexander replaced Miller after September 4 special election.
- ↑ Republican Harry Blevins (District 14) resigned. Although in theory Democrats had a brief numerical majority, the Senate was not in session. Additionally, rules adopted at the beginning of the 2012 session required a two-thirds supermajority vote to reorganize the Senate mid-session.
- ↑ Republican John Cosgrove replaced Blevins after August 6 special election.
- ↑ Democrats Ralph Northam (District 6) and Mark Herring (District 33) resigned upon being inaugurated Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General, respectively.
- ↑ Democrat Jennifer Wexton elected to succeed Herring.

- ↑ Democrat Phillip Puckett (District 38) resigned. Republicans regained effective control and adopted their own rules change effective June 12.
- ↑ Democrat Henry L. Marsh (District 16) resigned to take a seat on the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board.

- ↑ Democrat Rosalyn Dance elected to succeed Marsh.
