History

Historically, most of this district was located Upstate; however, over the years, until the 2002 redistricting, most of this area was in the 27th District. During the 1980s, this area was primarily in the 31st District. Two districts covered this area in the 1970s: the Erie County-based 38th, and the Monroe County-based 35th. The 26th District covered the area now in the 22nd District during the 1990s, and the area now in the 23rd District during the 1980s. In the 1970s, this district was centered in Orange and Rockland counties. During the 1960s, it covered areas in Westchester County, now in the 18th and 19th Districts.
