Scott Benton White (June 8, 1970 – October 21, 2011)[1] was an American politician who served as a Democratic member of the Washington State Senate representing the 46th legislative district. His district included much of North Seattle, including the neighborhoods of Northgate, Greenwood, Bitter Lake, Broadview, Haller Lake, Pinehurst, Olympic Hills, Maple Leaf, Lake City, Wedgwood, View Ridge, Laurelhurst, and Windermere.[2]
On October 21, 2011, White was found dead in a hotel room at Suncadia Resort.[3] The coroner's report indicated that the cause was a cardiac problem linked to a previously undiagnosed enlarged heart.[4]
During his 2011–2012 term, White's assignments in the Senate would have included serving in leadership as Majority Whip, as Vice Chair of the Transportation Committee, and serving on the Higher Education and Rules Committees.
A fourth-generation Washingtonian, White lived in the Wedgwood neighborhood of North Seattle with his wife, Alison Carl White, and their two young children.[5]
