“When I first became involved in District 21 in the winter of 1972, I could not have imagined the rich legacy this party would offer to me and our family. Despite many boundary changes, District 21 is still the heart of Fargo and West Fargo,” said Hogan, “It is a rich kaleidoscope of neighborhoods, schools, churches, businesses, and parks. It is the home to some of the most vulnerable citizens in our state whom we have nurtured and supported for decades. It is a diverse group of good people living and working together by living and learning continuously.”
