Ohio's 19th congressional district

"OH-19" redirects here. OH-19 may also refer to Ohio State Route 19.

Ohio's 19th congressional district was created following the 1830 census and was eliminated after the 2000 census.

From 1992-2002 it included all of Lake County and Ashtabula County together with a collection of Eastern suburbs of Cleveland. After 2002 it was replaced by the fourteenth district.[1] Parts of its old territory were redistricted into the 10th, 11th, and 13th districts.
