Politics
Representative Zerr first ran for office in 2008, hoping to fill the 18th district Missouri House seat vacated by Tom Dempsey. Zerr edged out fellow Republican Matthew Seeds in the August 2008 primary. An unusual situation developed for the November general election as Democratic candidate Tim Swope attempted to withdraw from the race. Being unable to do so, Swope declared he would not serve if elected. Zerr won election with 59.4-percent of the vote. In 2010 Zerr defeated Democrat Gary McKiddy to win her second term in the state legislature.
Zerr ran for the Missouri Senate in 2016, but lost in the Republican Primary to businessman Bill Eigel.
