James Dow Constantine (born November 15, 1961) is an American politician, lawyer, and urban planner in the state of Washington who is serving his third term as King County Executive, an office he has held since November 2009. He was in the state legislature and on the King County Council, chairing the latter before his election as executive. Constantine is a self-identified Democrat, though the executive's office is officially nonpartisan. He considered running for governor of Washington in the 2020 election but decided against it when incumbent Jay Inslee decided to seek a third term.
