Who Is Josh Riley? Details To Know About The NY19 Democratic Nominee

Josh Riley is a democrat running for election to represent New York’s 19th Congressional District; he won the Democratic primary on the 23rd of August 2022 against Jamie Cheney and is on the ballot in the general election on the 8th of November 2022. 

Before running for the election, he served as a partner with Jenner & Block from January 2021 to October 2021. Likewise, he was also the partner and counsel for Boies, Schiller & Flexner LLP. 

Riley has also worked as General Counsel on the Senate Judiciary Committee for U.S. Senator Al Franken and a Law Clerk to Judge Kim Wardlaw in the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. He also served as a staff assistant to Congressman Maurice Hinchey and Heyman Fellow for Senator Edward Kennedy.

Riley hasn’t revealed his date of birth, but he appears to be around 30-38 years old; the democrat was born and raised in a working-class neighborhood in Endicott, New York.

The politician delivered the newspaper to his neighbors every morning when he was young. He attended Union-Endicott High School from 1995 to 1999 and graduated with high honors from the College of William & Mary and Harvard Law School.

Although Josh had student loans, he saved from his newspaper route and part-time work to have a better future. Furthermore, he got accoladed with the Dean’s Award for Community Leadership in recognition of his track record in public service.

However, the democrat hasn’t revealed when he makes a toast to having a successful turn around the sun; he has never made a single post of him celebrating his birthday or revealed when he marks his born day annually.

Riley is happily married to his wife Monica, and they have gotten blessed with an adorable son who appears to be two years old in 2022.

The democrat loves his family and occasionally posts their pictures on his social networking sites; he goes by the username @joshrileyny and has made 77 posts as of the 24th of August.

His mini version is so adorable, and his followers are obsessed with the little one. The politician has shared so many precious moments with his son on Instagram, and one of them was when he took the 2-year-old boy to Binghamton Rumble Ponies’ ballgame, where he used to go when he was younger.

However, Josh hadn’t disclosed when and where he proposed to his girl to be his forever and when they walked the aisle and said I do. Thus, we are unaware of when the gorgeous couple celebrates their wedding anniversary and how long they have been together.

Josh, a fifth-generation Upstate New Yorker running for Congress to deliver results for Upstate New York neighborhoods, might have a net worth of $500,000 to $700,000 or more.

Proud of his past, the democrat offers a bold and optimistic vision for the region’s future; he plans to Revitalize, Innovate, and Strengthen the Economy in Upstate New York. Furthermore, the politician runs a grassroots campaign while refusing corporate PAC money.

However, Riley hasn’t shown how much finances he has pilled up in his bank account throughout his career. Yet, we presume he has earned a decent amount of money for the contributions he has made while working for members of Congress and senators back in the days.
