Election results

edit

District boundaries have changed over time. Therefore, senators before 2021 may not represent the same constituency as today. From 1993 until 2023, it covered various areas in the northern Willamette valley stretching from Hillsboro to Keizer.

The current district shrunk from its previous iterations due to population growth in Washington County, losing Keizer and all land in Marion County as well as all parts of Hillsboro.
