In 2008, the previous version of this district gave Barack Obama his largest victory margin of any congressional district, a margin of 90% (95–5%).[3] The current configuration of the 16th district is strongly Democratic, though it is not as overwhelmingly Democratic as other districts in the city.
In New York State electoral politics there are numerous minor parties at various points on the political spectrum. Certain parties will invariably endorse either the Republican or Democratic candidate for every office, hence the state electoral results contain both the party votes, and the final candidate votes (Listed as "Recap").

constituents in New York s 16th lived at or below the federal poverty line the highest poverty rate of any congressional district in the nation 4 These neighborhoods were largely reassigned to the 15th district after redistricting while the current 16th comprises most of the territory that had previously been the 17th District The current 16th district while still containing impoverished areas such as some neighborhoods of Mount Vernon also contains affluent areas such as in Scarsdale and Rye resulting in a more mixed income demography Recent statewide election results editYear Office
