State Representative Keiko Orrall (R)

I am proud and humbled to be the current representative of the 12th Bristol District. I am working hard to provide you, the taxpayer, with a voice for better government at the State House.
I am respectful, honest, and tenacious in working towards real world solutions. I believe that people are frustrated with their government and feel like their voice is not being heard. I will continue to work hard to be YOUR VOICE!
The 12th Bristol District includes Berkley, Lakeville, Middleborough (Precincts 2, 4, and 5), and Taunton (Wards 4-A, 4-B, and 3-B).
