New York's 63rd State Senate district is one of 63 districts in the New York State Senate. It has been represented by Democrat April Baskin since 2025, succeeding Tim Kennedy. The district underwent redistricting, since Kennedy's 2010 primary defeat of incumbent William Stachowski.
Prior to 2012, the State Senate had only 62 districts, meaning that the 63rd district did not exist until then. However, the new district followed similar lines as the old Buffalo-based 58th district, and it was in fact the 46th district that was entirely new.
