Washington's 1st legislative district


Washington's 1st Legislative District is one of forty-nine districts in Washington state for representation in the state legislature. The T-shaped district is mostly north of the line between King and Snohomish counties, stretching from High Bridge Road and Broadway Avenue in the east through the entirety of the cities of Bothell and Brier to I-5 in Mountlake Terrace in the west, though the district sweeps south of Bothell to part of Kirkland and reaches to Lake Washington.

The district is represented by state senator Guy Palumbo (D) and state representatives Derek Stanford (pos. 1) (D) and Shelley Kloba (pos. 2) (D).

Patty Murray, Washington's current senior U.S. Senator, the fourth-highest-ranking Democrat and the highest-ranking woman in the Senate, represented the 1st legislative district in the Washington State Senate for the 1989-1993 term, directly before being elected to the United States Senate. However most of her district is now the 32nd LD since she was living at the time in what is now Shoreline, Washington.
