Kevin Campbell is a former New Zealand Member of Parliament for the Alliance.

Member of Parliament

New Zealand Parliament
Years Term Electorate List Party
1999–2002 46th List 10 Alliance

Campbell was the Alliance candidate for the Taranaki-King Country by-election of 1998, and claimed to have "played some small part in bringing about the closer working relationship between Labour and the Alliance as a result of that by-election."[2] He was a member of the Alliance, having been elected to Parliament as a list MP in the 1999 elections. At the 2002 elections Campbell moved up one place on the Alliance party list, to tenth position, however due to the party's split,[3] the Alliance's party vote fell 6.47 percentage points,[4][5] meaning it was not allocated any seats in Parliament and Campbell lost his seat.

Since leaving Parliament Campbell has worked as a Supervising Solicitor at Community Law Canterbury.[1]
