William H. "Bill" Zeliff, Jr. (born June 12, 1936) is a Republican politician from New Hampshire who was a member of the U.S. House of Representatives from 1991-97.

Born in East Orange, New Jersey, Zeliff graduated from Milford High School in Milford, Connecticut in 1954 and received his B.S. at the University of Connecticut in 1959, where he was a member of the Delta Chi fraternity. He served in the Connecticut Army National Guard from 1958–64 and afterwards was in the United States Army Reserve.

Zeliff worked as a sales and marketing manager in the consumer products division of E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company from 1959 to 1976 and was also an innkeeper and small business owner. He ran unsuccessfully for the New Hampshire Senate in 1984 and was a delegate to the 1988 Republican National Convention which nominated George H. W. Bush for the presidency.

Zeliff was elected to the United States House of Representatives in 1990, took seat in 1991 and was reelected in 1992 and 1994. In 1996, Zeliff opted to instead run in the gubernatorial race for Governor of New Hampshire. He lost the nomination to the chairman of the New Hampshire Board of Education Ovide Lamontagne who went on to lose the election to New Hampshire State Senator Jeanne Shaheen.

Zeliff is a member of the ReFormers Caucus of Issue One.[1]

gollark: Honestly, the code is kind of a mess right now.

gollark: ... how?

gollark: ```rust// Evaluate an arithmetic expressioncommand!(eval(_context, message, args) { let expr = args.multiple::<String>()?.join(" "); // yes, this is kind of undoing the work the command parser does... send_result(message, &calc::eval(&expr))?;});// Evaluate an arithmetic expression in polish notationcommand!(eval_polish(_context, message, args) { let expr = args.multiple::<String>()?.join(" "); send_result(message, &calc::eval_polish(&expr))?;});```ALL THE CODE for this feature.

gollark: No, since I was too lazy to do anything other than plug in an existing rust library.

gollark: ++exec```testtest2```
