The Redistricting Commission will be rebalancing the state legislative districts to ensure each district represents approximately the same population.
This redrawing of district lines is a result of the 2020 census. The Article 2, Section 43, Washington State constitutional requirement for updated district lines (WAState Constitution) for years ending in one.
The redistricting commission has proposed this map for new voting districts -- it isn't final until it is adopted. There are not a lot of changes over current maps, but you may wish to comment on how proposed changes that affect you.
Comments can be made the Washington Redistricting Commission website. The comment (which they call "testimony") form is located here.
Relevant RCW is at RCW 44.05.030.
