OLYMPIA — The Office of the Secretary of State certified statewide results from the 2025 November General Election, Tuesday, Dec. 2.
More than 2 million total voters, or approximately 39.2% of registered voters, cast ballots in the statewide election, according to vote totals certified by Secretary of State Steve Hobbs. A complete breakdown of voter turnout and election results is available on the results website.
In addition to weighing in on numerous local contests and measures, Washington voters approved Senate Joint Resolution 8201, a constitutional amendment allowing state funds for long-term care services to be invested under the law’s guidelines. After passing a vote by the people, the constitutional amendment must be signed into law before going into effect.
“This year marked yet another safe, secure, and accessible election for Washington voters,” said Secretary Hobbs. “Local elections shape the future of our communities, and thanks to the tireless work of election officials statewide, every eligible voter had the opportunity to make their voice heard.”
Looking ahead to 2026 elections, eligible Washingtonians can register to vote or update their registration at any time. Registrations and updates can be completed online at VoteWA.gov, by mail, or in person at a county elections office.
The next election is Tuesday, Feb. 10, 2026. The last day to file a resolution to appear on the Feb. 2026 Special Election ballot is Dec. 12.
