Congressional District lines are changing in Ulster County, again!

In 2022, New York’s congressional district maps changed based on the results of the US Census. This “redistricting” resulted in Ulster County voters being represented by two different districts, NY18 and NY19.

In 2024, those maps were challenged and while the county is still divided under the new maps, some towns will switch districts beginning in January, 2025.
