Career

In 2007 Gregerson was elected to the SeaTac City Council.[1] In 2011, Gregerson held onto her seat on the council by a 31 vote margin against Republican Erin Sitterley.[2]

Gregerson was appointed to the state legislature on December 16, 2013 as the preferred candidate of the King County Council, despite being the second choice of the 33rd Legislative District Democratic Precinct Committee Officers.[3][4][5] Gregerson filled the vacancy left after Dave Upthegrove resigned from his seat in the legislature on December 16, 2013, following his election to the King County Council.

In a 2015 re-match, Gregerson lost her re-election campaign for SeaTac City Council Position 7 with 40.90% of the votes (1512 votes). Her opponent Erin Sitterley won with 58.70% (2170 votes).[6]
