On Tuesday, voters will head to the polls and make their choice for several races in the area. One of those elections is the Democratic 7th Congressional District race, where the winner will face Republican Congressman Sean Duffy in November.

"I'm a doctor, I've served people here in northern Wisconsin for 25 years, and last summer Congress set out to destroy and dismantle the health care of the very people I take care of, and that's when I became more engaged," said Democratic Congressional candidate Brian Ewert.

"I'm a veteran, former railroad union worker, I've been a corrections officer and I'm now an attorney. I think that broad base of experience will really help me deal with the plethora of issues facing this nation right now," said Democratic Congressional candidate Margaret Engebretson.

Both Ewert and Engebretson hope to win in Tuesday's primary election. They each hope to represent the 7th Congressional District, which includes 20 counties.

"I'm running because after the 2016 elections, I like many other people across this nation, felt an overwhelming sense of duty and obligation to step forward," said Engebretson.

"Wanting to make sure we strengthen our democracy, and we start working towards solving problems and creating solutions instead of having partisan bickering," said Ewert.

One candidate is a doctor at Marshfield Clinic in Wood County.

"I have a proven track record of leadership," said Ewert.

While the other is a veteran and an attorney in Polk County, among other professions.

"Offer what skills and abilities I have to help get our country moving to the right direction," said Engebretson.

Both candidates agree that health care is a high priority in this district.

"In terms of the core issues for the 7th District; so certainly health care is one of the key ones. We need universal, affordable health care," said Ewert.

"One of the biggest policy issues that I hear from folks throughout the district is health care. So I will fight for a single-payer, medicare for all public health insurance program," said Engebretson.

Both candidates said that if elected, they can address the issues our nation is facing.

"Our democracy is under attack either directly or indirectly from several directions," said Engebretson.

"We need to quiet down those voices of fear and hatred and anger, and work towards bipartisan solutions. Cause at the end of the day, we live in communities, not political parties," said Ewert.

Both names will appear on Tuesday's ballot, but following the primary election; only one will face Sean Duffy in November.
