Jeff Kerr
for NH State Rep

Honest. Ethical. Democrat.

About me

I have lived in Bedford for almost 14 years.  I am a married father of 2 Bedford High School graduates. I have been an engineer for 35 years and I like building and fixing things.  Right now, I think New Hampshire's state government is broken and is in dire need of fixing.  I am running for state representative for all of Bedford because I see New Hampshire's values being eroded by the radical right who only want to preserve the rights of a vocal minority.

  • I want to lower property taxes.  
  • I want to defend public schools.
  • I want to lower energy costs by changing the incentives of our public utilities.
  • I want to preserve local control of town and school budgets.
I love New Hampshire for its beautiful scenery and its incredible cycling and hiking opportunities.  Spending time on my bike and racing up Mt Washington has been a great experience.  A friend introduced me to winter hiking and now I put on the snow shoes every chance I get.

I am a trail steward and spend most of my trail time maintaining Legacy Park.  I have also started grooming the trails in the winter for the Bedford XC Ski Club to improve my ski XC technique. We have such great opportunities for outdoor recreation in Bedford.
