Randi Knott

Randi Knott is a public policy expert running this fall to flip a seat in the Washington House. Randi has spent more than twenty-five years with cities and local governments on complex issues ranging from disaster response and public safety to land use, housing, and community services. An Autism mom and former small business owner, Randi is focused on increasing affordability and providing her constituents with practical, responsive representation.

In the district primary, Randi earned an impressive 52% against a Republican incumbent, putting her in an excellent position, with the DLCC’s support, to flip this battleground district and help Democrats expand their majority in the Washington House.

2026 is a historic opportunity to grow Democratic power in the Washington House, where a blue supermajority is just seven seats away. 

Democrats have used their majorities in the Washington House and Senate to pass legislation to address issues including access to affordable housing, rising medical costs, and responsible gun ownership. 

The DLCC has worked closely with Washington Democrats, cycle over cycle, to steadily build a firewall against MAGA extremism. Establishing a supermajority in the Washington House is the next step towards protecting millions of Americans from Trump’s dangerous agenda.

A Democratic supermajority could refer constitutional amendments to the ballot to give voters a voice on key issues like redistricting, without Republican obstruction. Democrats have made amazing progress in Washington, but November’s elections are a watershed moment for the state. Now is the time to rally behind the most competitive candidates running in Washington this year.
