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.
