All U.S. congressional districts, including the 19th Congressional District of New York, are holding elections in 2018.

Primary: A primary election is an election in which registered voters select a candidate that they believe should be a political party's candidate for elected office to run in the general election. They are also used to choose convention delegates and party leaders. Primaries are state-level elections that take place prior to a general election. New York utilizes a closed primary process, in which the selection of a party's candidates in an election is limited to registered party members.^[4][5][6]

Incumbent: Heading into the election the incumbent is John Faso (R), who was first elected in 2016.

New York's 19th Congressional District is located in the eastern portion of the state and includes Columbia, Delaware, Greene, Otsego, Schoharie, Sullivan, and Ulster counties and parts of Broome, Dutchess, Montgomery and Rensselaer counties.^[7]

Note: Prior to the signature filing deadline, candidates will be added when Ballotpedia writers come across declared candidates. If you notice a missing candidate, please email us the name and we will add it. As the election draws closer, more information will be added to this page. Incumbents are assumed to be running for re-election until they say otherwise.
