Former member of Congress · last served 116th Congress
Peter T. King
Peter King was a Republican U.S. representative from New York, first elected to Congress in 1993, who voted with most Republicans on 89% of the 112th Congress’s yes/no votes and sponsored 2 bills that became law (113th–116th Congress).
How we count: “Broke with party” is a yes/no roll call where the member voted against most of their own party on that vote (party as recorded; even splits not counted). “Pork: own share” splits each earmark shared by several members evenly among them.

Source: MIT Election Data and Science Lab, U.S. House V15 / U.S. Senate V8 (CC0), retrieved 2026-10-18; winners matched to member records by seat and term. Results run through the 2024 elections; nothing from 2026 is shown until it is certified. A margin is a fact about one election, never a score of how well a member represents anyone, and PORKER does not rank members by it.
How has New York’s 2nd district done while Rep. King served?
2013 to 2019 in NY-2: typical household income was up 15% after inflation, the share of people below the poverty line was about the same, and the share of workers looking for a job was down 4.1 points.
Each mini chart has its own scale, fitted to its lines (it does not start at zero), so compare the numbers, not the heights. Teal = district, oxblood = state, grey = U.S.
While they served, not because of them. This shows what happened in New York’s 2nd district during King’s time representing it (2013 to 2021). It does not say what the member did or caused. It is not a score, and PORKER never ranks members on it.
One set of district lines. NY-2 was redrawn in 2012, 2022 and again in 2024 (the survey year the new lines first appear), but every survey year in King’s term so far (2013 to 2019) uses the same lines, so they can be compared. The Census Bureau has no 2020 yearly estimate.

Read this first. These are counts of records Congress.gov lists. Many bills never get a CBO estimate or a report, so a zero is not a mark against a member. We never show this as a score.
