Who is my U.S. representative in NY-19?
Your current U.S. Representative for NY-19 is Josh Riley, a Democrat. He represents the district, which covers New York's Catskills, Hudson Valley, greater Capital District, Southern Tier, and Finger Lakes regions, including cities like Binghamton and Ithaca. Wikipedia A couple of things worth flagging: He's up for re-election this year — Riley is running in the Democratic primary for the seat on June 23, 2026, and the winner of the Republican primary between Peter Oberacker and Alex Portelli will face him in November. Ballotpedia Nystateofpolitics A New York state judge ruled in January 2026 that the state's 11th Congressional District unconstitutionally diluted Black and Latino voting power and ordered new maps — that ruling was about NY-11, not NY-19, but it's a reminder that New York's district lines have been in flux lately, so it's worth double-checking your specific address on a site like the House's "Find Your Representative" tool if you're near a district boundary.
