The 2012 Washington State Senate elections took place on November 6 2012. Twenty-five of Washington’s forty-nine state senators were elected. Each state legislative district has one senator elected to a four-year term but state senate elections alternate so that about half of the senators are elected in presidential election years (e.g. 2008 2012) and the other half are elected in non-presidential even numbered election years (e.g. 2010 2014).
