Zeeland Record
State Rep. Brad Slagh has announced his intention to seek a fifth term in the Michigan House of Representatives.
The Zeeland Township resident announced his plans to seek another two-year term as the representative of the 85th House District on Monday.
Slagh was first elected to the House in 2018, after serving more than 11 years as Ottawa County treasurer and six years as Zeeland Township supervisor.
“I see my responsibility as a representative to listen to those I serve and represent my district’s values,” Slagh said in a press release. “Whether that be holding district office hours each month or attending local meetings, my goal is to ensure that Ottawa County has a respected voice in Lansing.”
Slagh has served on the Appropriations Committee and numerous different appropriations subcommittees; he currently chairs the Subcommittee for the Department of Corrections and Judicial Branch. He has also been a leader on various policy initiatives, including amending how local speed limits are set, ensuring the electric grid remains reliable and assisting local taxpayers who own property.
Slagh has captured at least 64 percent of the vote in each of his House election wins. In the November 2024 election, he received 70.4 percent of the vote in defeating Democratic challenger Marcia Mansaray, the former deputy health officer for Ottawa County. The primary election will be held on Tuesday, Aug. 4 and the general election will be held on Tuesday, Nov. 3.
