Note: (*) Incumbent Roger Freeman (D) died six days before the general election. His name stayed on the ballot and was elected posthumously. Democratic precinct officers chose Carol Gregory, Richard Champion and Shari Song as the top three replacement candidates in a meeting on December 1, 2014. The King County and Pierce County councils were expected to meet jointly, as has been done during previous inter-county vacancies, to choose one of the three to serve for one year. However, the King County Council rejected an invitation from the Pierce County Council to meet on December 22. It then selected Gregory in a unanimous vote on December 8. The Pierce County Council declined to act further, leaving Gov. Jay Inslee (D) to decide the nomination by default.[1][2][3] On January 8, 2015, Inslee appointed Carol Gregory (D) to the seat.[4]
