Hey dipwad, from your site:

1913–1919 Parts of Manhattan 1919–1969 Parts of The Bronx 1969–1971 Parts of The Bronx, Manhattan 1971–1973 Parts of The Bronx 1973–1983 Parts of The Bronx, Westchester 1983–1993 All of Albany, Schenectady Parts of Montgomery, Rensselaer 1993–2003 All of Chenango, Madison, Oneida, Otsego Parts of Broome, Delaware, Herkimer, Montgomery, Schoharie 2003–present All of Clinton, Franklin, Hamilton, Jefferson, Lewis, Madison, Oswego, St. Lawrence Parts of Essex, Fulton, Oneida

The current configuration of that district is since 2003, before that this area was under another number, so my guess there have been no dems elected from that area of the state, not necessarily from that district number, which has moved all over the state, even including parts of Manhattan at one point. Of course I should have guessed that you were not a rocket scientist in any case.

The funny thing is he's accusing the author of playing loose with the facts.
