A busy year of elections continues on Tuesday in Woburn as residents are asked to go to the polls for the final time in 2013.

Voters in 23 communities and in three counties will go to the polls to select one of four candidates to be the 5th Congressional District's new U.S. Representative, to replace Ed Markey, who became the state's junior senator earlier this year.

Polls will be open in Woburn from 7 a.m. to 8 pm. as Woburn residents will be asked to select one of the following:

  • Frank J. Addivinola Jr., a Boston attorney, with the Republican party
  • Katherine Clark, a state senator from Melrose, with the Democratic party
  • James Aulenti, of Wellesley, with the Independent party
  • James Hall, and Arlington attorney with an independent party
Woburn Patch has been running a series of Q&As with the candidates on top issues on the campaign trail.
