The 2020 Washington State Treasurer election was held on November 3, 2020, to elect the Washington State Treasurer, concurrently with the 2020 U.S. presidential election, as well as elections to the U.S. Senate and various state and local elections, including for U.S. House and governor of Washington. Washington is one of two states that holds a top-two primary, meaning that all candidates are listed on the same ballot regardless of party affiliation, and the top two move on to the general election.

Incumbent Republican State Treasurer Duane Davidson was first elected back in 2016 defeating fellow Republican Michael Waite. Davidson lost his bid for re-election to Democratic state Representative Mike Pellicciotti.

The top-two primary was held on August 4.
