SD-13

DENVER-- State Rep. Bette Lasky has begun to put together the foundations for her fall campaign.

The Nashua Democrat is running for the state senate in district 13 against Sandra Ziehm (R-Nashua).

Nashua School board member Sandra Ziehm (R-Nashua) will launch her campaign for the state senate with a fundraiser sponsored by her children.

The event will take place on August 7 at Harmony Real Estate, which is owned by Ziehm.

Dennis Hogan (R-Nashua) has decided to run for the state senate.

Hogan filed with the Secretary of State office for the Senate District 13 seat. He will be running against state Rep. Bette Lasky (D-Nashua) for the seat being abandoned by state Sen. Joe Foster (D-Nashua).

Nashua Republicans will have Dennis Hogan taking a second shot at Senate District 13 this fall. Earlier today Sen. Majority Leader Joe Foster announced he would not be seeking reelection and the Democrats announced state Representative Bette Lasky would be their nominee.

Republicans are excited about the prospects of Hogan. Hogan is a trial lawyer and school board member serving since 2006. One republican consultant thought Hogan was the most qualified candidate the GOP could hope for saying he’s been on the ballot before, he’s articulate and can raise money.

State Rep. Bette Lasky (D-Nashua) tells PolitickerNH.com she will seek Senate seat vacated moments ago by Senate Majority Leader Joe Foster (D-Nashua).

More details to come.
