It's been even longer since it happened to a Democrat. (1992, I believe)

I believe Tom Daschle lost his seat in 2004 to John Thune by ~4000 votes.

But Bush won South Dakota comfortably. The question is asking about incumbent Senators who lose reelection in Presidential years even as his or her party's nominee carries their home state.

D'oh. Then yeah, Wyche Fowler is the last Democrat to lose his seat in a state the Dems won at the presidential level.
