This will be Riley's second election against Edming, whom she faced in 2016. She also ran in 2012 but lost to former Rep. Mary Williams in the general election. Riley was the only Democrat who ran both years. 
Riley grew up in Eau Claire and lived in Milwaukee for several years before moving to Hayward, where she's spent the past 23 years. She's worked as a nurse, administrator and teacher at Lac Courte Oreilles Ojibwa Community College. 
Riley aims to enhance local government control and bolster resources for schools. She also wants to return scientists to the Department of Natural Resources and help make the agency independent from political interference.
