Washington State has freshly redrawn its political districts. The final maps (for the next ten years) are reproduced here:
 |
| WA State Legislative Districts |
 |
| US Congressional districts |
These maps can be found at https://www.redistricting.wa.gov/final-maps iffen you need a more detailed look.
The state Supreme Court decided not to intervene with the process and accepted the maps as drawn by the redistricting commission.
The Supreme Court decision was a little awkward in view of the fact that the redistricting commission had gummed up their process and did not get all their work handed in in time. But the redistricting commission did present a plan. It was this the Supreme Court accepted.
The commission web site puts it like this:
"The four voting commissioners on the Washington State Redistricting Commission were unable to adopt a districting plan by the midnight deadline on November 15, 2021. They did, however, approve Congressional District and Legislative District maps and are making them available to the public. You can access the Commissioner's approved district map pages."
Its been a lot of work in these tumultuous times. The commissioners must have felt slightly incoherent
