2014 Washington State Senate election

The 2014 Washington State Senate elections is one of the biennial legislative elections in Washington took place on November 4, 2014. In this election, about half of the 49 legislative districts in Washington chose a state senator for a four-year term to the Washington State Senate. The other half of state senators were chosen in the next biennial election, so that about half of the senators are elected at a time: one group in presidential election years (e.g., 2008, 2012, 2016) and the other in other even-numbered election years (e.g., 2010, 2014). All the members of the Washington State House of Representatives are elected concurrently with half of the senators every two years.
