But local races matter to everyone, as our senators and representatives steer legislation and determine spending. Here is an overview of who's on your ballot:

In Tredyffrin Township, voters will weigh in on the race for Pennsylvania's 6th U.S. Congressional District, currently represented by Chrissy Houlahan (D-6th). Houlahan's seat is challenged by Republican John Emmons, with Independent candidate John McHugh also on the ballot.

Incumbent Rep. Melissa Schusterman (D-157th) seeks reelection in the 157th District. She is opposed by Republican Brian Walters.

The two candidates responded to Patch's request to complete a candidate profile, and those can be read for Schusterman here and for Walters here.

PA House District 157 includes Tredyffrin Township, Schuylkill Township, Upper Providence Township and three wards in Phoenixville.

Pennsylvania's State Senate 19th District reaches into Tredyffrin Township. The state senate seat held by Sen. Andy Dinniman (D-19th) since 2006 will be vacated with Dinniman's retirement.
