Who lives in Wisconsin’s 7th, and who answers to them
Twenty-six counties, twenty-one of them whole, stretching from Lake Superior to Marshfield. Hover or tap a county to see how many people it sends to Washington’s doorstep, and how that number is moving.
District map
County by county
The decennial count is the official baseline the district was drawn on. The Census Bureau’s July 1, 2025 estimates show where people have moved since. For the five split counties, the whole-county figure appears first and the district’s share is estimated.

Who voted, 2020 to 2024
How many people in each county cast a ballot in the last three general elections. The first view counts votes in the 7th District House race itself; the second counts votes for the top office on the ballot (president in 2020 and 2024, governor in 2022), the closest public measure of total turnout. For the five split counties the House count covers only the part inside the 7th, while the top-of-ticket count covers the whole county.
| County | 2020 | 2022 | 2024 | 2024 vs 2020 | Midterm drop (2022 vs 2020) | Trend |

The 2020 race was run on the 2011 district map, so the five split counties were divided a little differently that year; the whole-county figures are unaffected. Source: Wisconsin Elections Commission certified County by County Reports for the 2020, 2022, and 2024 general elections.
Representation
This site follows the seat, not any one officeholder, with 2026 as its baseline year. The current member’s term runs through January 3, 2027.
Rep. Tom Tiffany (R-Minocqua)
Won the May 2020 special election to finish Sean Duffy’s term, then re-elected in 2020, 2022, and 2024 (63.6% in 2024). He did not seek re-election to the House in 2026 and was the Republican nominee for governor, losing to Democrat David Crowley on November 3, 2026 by roughly 54% to 46% in unofficial returns.
Rep.-elect Michael Alfonso (R)
Defeated Democrat Fred Clark with about 56% of the vote in unofficial returns, keeping the seat Republican. Reported to become the youngest member of the incoming Congress. Figures will be updated once the Wisconsin Elections Commission certifies the canvass.
What this site will offer
The map is the front door. These sections are being built next, with the district’s residents as the measure for all of them. Votes, campaign money, and federal dollars flowing into the district are tracked on the companion site, widistrict7watch.com.
Residents
What people in the 7th say they want from Washington, gathered county by county, set beside how the seat actually voted.
Services
How to reach the district offices, what casework the office can help with, and the federal programs that touch the Northwoods most: VA, USDA, FEMA, Social Security.
Calendar
Town halls, office hours, election dates and deadlines, and public meetings, by county.
Public record
Published polls, local coverage, and constituent letters, dated and sourced, so the Residents section rests on more than one survey.
Sources and method

District boundaries. Wis. Stat. § 3.17 as drawn for the 118th and 119th Congresses, in effect since January 3, 2023.

Split counties. The district-share figures for Chippewa, Jackson, Juneau, Monroe, and Wood are rounded estimates built from the municipalities assigned to the 7th and constrained to the district total.
