Each Wisconsin State Senate district is composed of three State Assembly districts. The 19th Senate district comprises the 55th, 56th, and 57th Assembly districts. The current representatives of those districts are:[4]
- Assembly District 55: Nate Gustafson (R–Fox Crossing)
- Assembly District 56: David Murphy (R–Greenville)[5]
- Assembly District 57: Lee Snodgrass (D–Appleton)[6]
The 19th Senate district, in its current borders, crosses three congressional districts. The portion of the district in Adams and Portage counties falls within Wisconsin's 3rd congressional district, represented by U.S. Representative Derrick Van Orden. The portion in Waushara and most of Winnebago County falls within Wisconsin's 6th congressional district, which is represented by U.S. Representative Glenn Grothman. The remainder of the district in Outagamie, Waupaca, and north-central Winnebago fall within Wisconsin's 8th congressional district, represented by U.S. Representative Mike Gallagher.[7]
