It's been called the most Republican district in the state.

Nearby, in rural areas outside of Buffalo, there are some RW extremist militias. Several of the J6 insurrectionists who have been arrested are from Erie County and nearby.

The militia hate group, Watchmen, has several connections with Erie County politicians like Carl Paladino. Fortunately, when Paladino ran in the R primaries for this district, he lost.
