Washington's 15th legislative district map

Washington's 15th legislative district is one of forty-nine districtsinWashington state for representation in the state legislature. It includes portions of Adams, Benton, Franklin, Grant, and Yakima counties.[1]

This semi-rural district is represented by state senator Nikki Torres and state representatives Bruce Chandler (position 1) and Bryan Sandlin (position 2), all Republicans.

The Washington State Redistricting Commission reorganized the district in 2021 to include a 51.5 percent Latino majority, which was determined to be in violation of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 by a U.S. District court judge. The 2023 ruling requires the state commission to redraw the district in time for the 2024 legislative session.[2]
