Rooted in Experience. Grounded in Respect. Focused on Our Future.

A Proud Michigander. A Leader for Our Future. It would be my honor to serve our historic district in Lansing—fighting for the values, needs, and future of every family who calls Michigan home.

Now is the time to remember who we truly are as proud Michiganders.

What defines a true Michigander isn’t our gender, our income, our race, or our religion. It’s the respect we show our neighbors, the dignity we recognize in ourselves and in others, and the empathy to understand that everyone is facing their own struggles.

It’s the power we hold when we choose to help one another to lift each other up, to build stronger communities, and to move forward together. ​

That’s the spirit of Michigan that was instilled in me and that’s the spirit we need now more than ever.

I’m Ned Zimmer and I’m campaigning to be your next State Representative in District 66. I will lead with purpose to restore trust in our institutions, and to make sure Lansing works for all of us. Together, we can build a future that’s focused, forward-thinking, and rooted in the values we share.

Let’s get to work.

Our Core Beliefs

Our campaign isn't about politics. It's about people. We've seen cultural fights and partisan headlines get in the way of what matters: safe communities, good schools, affordable homes, and fair-paying jobs. I'm running because we deserve better—and I believe that starts with honest leadership rooted in lived experience.

Future-Oriented Planning

Belief in the importance of planning ahead with purpose to meet long-term challenges.

2

Forward-Thinking Infrastructure Investment

Commitment to upgrading infrastructure in a way that supports growth, sustainability, and modern needs.

3

Pragmatic, Grounded Leadership

Leadership that is practical, steady, and rooted in real-world experience and responsibility.

4

Hope and Vision for the Next Generation

A belief that progress is possible when guided by hope and a shared vision of a better future.

We all deserve to know we're getting the best from our community—because when people are taken care of, communities thrive.
