At over 60,000 square miles, the 19th district is the largest district in the state, accounting for over half of the state's total land area, and is in fact the largest state legislative district in the continental United States. [1]

District 19 was created when the senatorial districts were redrawn in 2011 as a result of the 2010 census. [7] The new districts went into effect on January 1, 2012 for filing for office, and for nominating and electing senators. They became effective for all other purposes on November 7 of the same year – the day after Election Day, when the new terms began. The law defines District 19's borders using census tracts, block groups, and blocks. [8]
Most of the district was previously in the Rural Senatorial District. After the 1991 redistricting the rural district encompassed Humboldt, Pershing and Elko Counties as well as parts of Lander and Eureka Counties. After the 2000 census the district also encompassed all of Lander, Eureka, White Pine and Lincoln Counties as well as parts of Nye County.
