She defeated Chris Vance (R) in the general election on November 8, 2016. Murray and Vance defeated 15 other candidates to win the primary on August 2, 2016. In Washington, all candidates run in the same primary and the two candidates who receive the most votes, regardless of party affiliation, advance to the general election.

Campaign themes

2016

The following issues were listed on Teuton's campaign website. For a full list of campaign themes, click here.

“	Economy & Taxes: Our current tax code is absurdly complex; made so by lobbyists and corporations looking for ways to get out of paying what they ought to owe our nation. This proposed new tax system will drastically simplify how we interact with our government. Energy & the Environment: Renewable energy must be part of our future as a responsible state and nation. Washington State has supported wind energy, hydroelectric energy, and solar energy. Now, we must keep up our progress and maintain the environmental health of our land. I favor an “almost all of the above” strategy – excluding the oldest and dirtiest technologies. Free Trade: I believe in free trade, but I also believe in fair trade. It is entirely unreasonable to demand a company in the United States to follow environmental standards and operate under certain human rights conditions while forcing them to compete with companies and countries that do not. Free trade should not mean that U. S. companies are punished for protecting their employees and the environment. Health Care: The Affordable Care Act is a decent first step but it does have serious issues. Those problems are because it was built by the system ‘as-is’. As a nation, we have been slowly trying to work our way to a nationwide insurance system since President Franklin D. Roosevelt sought a way to help the people of our nation after the Great Depression. Despite repeated attempts to straighten our system and clear the way for universal health care, partisan bickering and lobbyist weight has kept advancement at bay. Immigration: Illegal immigrants who were brought to the United States as children – through no fault of their own, have committed no crimes and who have been productive members of their community, should be granted a path to citizenship. Further, illegal immigrants, who have been productive members of their community for years, have committed no crime save the law of illegal immigration, should be granted a path to permanent residency; given access to citizenship should they complete the legal path as it stands now or after it is improved for everyone.	”
