Virginia's 19th Senate district

Virginia's 19th Senate district is one of 40 districts in the Senate of Virginia. It has been represented by Republican David Suetterlein since 2016, succeeding his retiring former boss Ralph K. Smith. In the 2023 Virginia Senate election, Christie Craig was elected.

Geography
District 19 is based in Southwest Virginia, including all of Floyd County and the City of Salem and parts of Bedford, Carroll, Franklin, Montgomery, Roanoke, and Wythe Counties.

The district overlaps with Virginia's 5th, 6th, and 9th congressional districts, and with the 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 12th, 17th, and 22nd districts of the Virginia House of Delegates.

Historical results
All election results below took place prior to 2011 redistricting, and thus were under different district lines. In 2011, Ralph K. Smith, the incumbent from the 22nd district, was redistricted into the 19th district; meanwhile, then-19th district incumbent Bill Stanley was redistricted into the 20th district.
