Jeffrey W. Hall, known as Jeff Hall (born December 26, 1951),[1] is an American accountant from Alexandria, Louisiana, who is a Democratic member of the Louisiana House of Representatives for District 26 in Rapides Parish in the central portion of his state.[2]

Hall is a graduate of the historically black Grambling State University[2] in Grambling in Lincoln Parish. He has formerly resided in Pineville, Opelousas, and Mansfield, Louisiana, and Amarillo, Texas.[3] Hall's place of birth, high school, religion, and names of his parents, spouse, and children are unavailable.

Hall won a special election to the House on February 21, 2015, with 84 percent of the vote. His two intra-party rivals, Alice "Red" Hammond and Daniel Williams, held the remaining 16 percent of the ballots cast in a low-turnout contest.[4] The position opened when the African-American Democrat, Herbert Dixon, resigned because of health issues. On November 4, 2014, Hall had placed second with just over a third of the vote in the nonpartisan blanket primary to unseat Mayor Jacques Roy of Alexandria, who instead won a majority for his third term in office.[1]

Hall stressed economic development, jobs, and resolving the $1 billion state budget shortfall as the principal issues he will face in the office.[1]
