Washington's 1st legislative district

Washington's 1st legislative district is one of 49 districts in Washington state and is responsible for representation in the state legislature.

The district's legislators are state senator Derek Stanford and state representatives Davina Duerr (position 1) and Shelley Kloba (position 2), all Democrats.

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