Senators are required to be 30 years old before they can serve in the Senate. However, they can be 29 years old and still be elected as a Senator, as long as their birthday is before their swearing in. Joe Biden was only 29 years old when he was elected as a senator on November 7, 1972, but he turned 30 years old on November 20, 1972, a few months before his swearing in on January 5, 1973.
