Summary
The 18th district is based in the mid Hudson Valley, including all of Orange County and most of Dutchess and Ulster Counties.

The district has a PVI of D+1 and voted for Joe Biden by 8 points in 2020.
The incumbent is Democrat Sean Patrick Maloney, who was re-elected with 55.8% of the vote in 2020, however, Maloney has decided to run in the neighboring 17th district instead.
