I’m Keith Erf, candidate for state representative in Weare and Deering. I’m running for State representative to champion limited government. I’ve lived in Weare for 37 years. My wife, Louisa, and I raised four children here where they attended Weare schools.
I started my business, KyTek, in 1991 developing automated systems for the publishing industry. As a small business owner and member of the Weare Finance Committee, I’ve seen firsthand how NH business taxes, property taxes and expanding government negatively impacts our communities. We need representation in Concord that fights for our best interests, limiting government and taxation so current and future generations can afford to live and work in our community.
As a member of the Weare Finance Committee, I look to find a taxpayer-friendly balance between the needs of the town and schools and the costs to our residents. From the vantage point of the Finance Committee I have learned that we need representation in Concord that will avoid legislation that places costs on Weare and Deering requiring us to increase our local property taxes.
I will work to limit State government and regulations as local government is most responsive to our citizens. I support passing right-to-work legislation which will help attract business to our state. I will oppose any increase in taxes including a broad-based sales tax and state income tax. I strongly support your 2nd Amendment rights as gun control efforts are an ineffective way to prevent gun violence. I support repeal of Medicaid expansion as people taking control of their own health care is a better way to control health care costs. I support school choice as a means to provide a better education to more of our children.
I ask for your vote in the September 11 Republican primary.
