When Evans completed her second city council term in 2004, the 7th Assembly District seat in the California State Assembly was open, because the incumbent, Pat Wiggins, was barred by term limits from seeking reelection.

In August 2009, Wiggins, who had been elected to the State Senate in 2006, announced that she would not run for re-election in 2010.[11] Evans ran for the seat being vacated, and was nominated in June 2010 as the Democratic candidate.[12] She won the general election in November 2010. Evans is the chair of the Senate Committee on Judiciary Committee, which also includes a seat on the Judicial Council, the policy making body for all California courts. She also chairs the Senate Select Committee on Wine and the Senate Select Committee on Food: Local, Organic, and Sustainable Systems. On August 12, 2013, Evans announced that she would not be a candidate for reelection and that she would return to private law practice.[13] In January 2016 Evans entered the race for supervisor in Sonoma County's 5th District.[14] However, she was defeated by Lynda Hopkins 23,259 votes to 19,601.
