Ohio's 19th congressional district

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 14th district.[1] Parts of its old territory were redistricted into the 10th, 11th, and 13th districts.
