Dennis Hogan Files for Re-Election

Hillsborough County Attorney Dennis Hogan announced his campaign for re-election when he filed with the Secretary of State on June 11.  

Hogan has presided  over a six percent reduction in the County Attorney’s budget and a significant increase in felony cases. “We have handled the increase in cases per prosecutor by attracting superior talent,” Hogan said.  “As the head of the agency, I don’t concern myself with taking credit.  There is plenty of credit to go around when the job is getting done right and the job is getting done right.”  

Hogan first won election to the office of Hillsborough County Attorney in 2010 when he received 53 percent of the vote in a three person contest. 

Ward 2 in Nashua elected Hogan as Delegate to New Hampshire's 17th and last Constitutional Convention in 1984. He represented Ward 2 in the New Hampshire Legislature after the 1984 election. In a city-wide race, Nashua elected Hogan to the Board of Education in 2005 with more votes than anyone on the ballot that day. In 2006, Hogan successfully prevented “Cop Killer Advocate” Tom Alciere from becoming the Republican nominee for State Senate District 13 by receiving 89 percent of the vote from a write in campaign. 

Hogan graduated from Nashua High School in 1982. He participated in gymnastics club and on the debate team. He and his partner won the Novice Division Debate State Championship. He graduated from University of New Hampshire in  Durham and received a B.A. in Political Science in 1986.  Dennis received a JD and LLM from UNH Law (formerly Franklin Pierce Law Center) in 2002.  Hogan was born in Nashua on October 22, 1964.
