U.S. House

New York 22nd Congressional District — 2026

New York’s 22nd District (central New York) elects a U.S. representative on November 3, 2026. Democratic incumbent John Mannion faces Republican Kailee Buller. Fusion or additional party lines, if any, appear on the official ballot.

What this office is

Each U.S. House district elects one representative for a two-year term. Your district is assigned by official maps and your registered address — not by opening a page on this site. The House originates revenue bills, shares lawmaking with the Senate, and can impeach federal officers. All 435 voting seats are on the ballot in 2026.

Why it matters in 2026

The district has changed parties in recent cycles. Decision Desk HQ treated the June 23 Republican primary as uncontested. County boards of elections assign the district and print every qualified line.

WKTV reported in May 2026 that Buller was the Republican nominee with no GOP primary opponent. Confirm Conservative or Working Families lines with your county board.
