PRESS RELEASE

Dear Hempstead County Citizens,

I, Kelly Dougan am excited to announce that I will be running for the position of Hempstead County Clerk in the 2022 Election, as a Republican Candidate.

I have been an employee of the Hempstead County Courthouse for 21 years. In 2000, I went to work for the Hempstead County Tax Assessor and in 2003 I transferred to the District Clerk's Office. I am currently the Chief Deputy in the District Court.

I was born and raised in Hempstead County. I am happily married to Dennis Dougan for 25 years. We are blessed with 3 wonderful children, Mike, Dalton and Abigail. 

The County Clerk's office is responsible for the Budget, Elections, Payroll, Account Payable, Voter Registration and many more. The County Clerk also serves as Secretariat to the Quorum Court. 

If elected I will have an open-door policy with my office staff, the public, and all employees of the county. I will do my very best to serve the citizens of Hempstead County with integrity. 

Thank You, 

Kelly Dougan
