The 2020 Washington Attorney General election was held on November 3, 2020, to elect the attorney general of Washington, concurrently with the 2020 U.S. presidential election, as well as elections to the U.S. Senate and various state and local elections, including for U.S. House and governor of Washington. Incumbent Democratic Attorney General Bob Ferguson was re-elected to a third term in office.
Ferguson was first elected in 2012 against Republican King County Councilor Reagan Dunn, winning 53% of the vote to succeed Republican Rob McKenna. He was re-elected over Libertarian Joshua Trumbull in 2016 with 67% of the vote and was expected to easily win a third term.
Washington is one of two states that holds a top-two primary, meaning that all candidates are listed on the same ballot regardless of party affiliation, and the top two move on to the general election.
Ferguson won six of ten congressional districts, with the remaining four going to Larkin, including one that elected a Democrat.
