Let’s get to know the canidate!
Meet Morgan Hudson
Thank you for taking a moment to learn more about me. My name is Morgan Hudson, and I’m running because I believe strong communities are built by people who live here, work here, and care deeply about the future of our district. I’ve spent my life in Delaware—raising my family, building a small business, and giving back to the community that has given so much to me. I’m committed to practical, community-focused leadership that puts people first and keeps our neighborhoods strong.
I’ve chosen to raise my family in this district because it has always been home. I am a lifelong Delawarean, born and raised in the Frederica and Milford area, and a proud graduate of St. Thomas More Academy in Magnolia. Delaware has long been the ideal place to raise a family, so after college I returned home to join my family’s construction cleaning business—an operation that has proudly served our state for more than 30 years.
Our company specializes in commercial projects that support our communities, including hospitals, police stations, schools, and other essential facilities. We provide labor, professional cleaning, floor restoration, and floor sealing services. Over the past 19 years, I’ve worn many hats within the company and now serve as Vice President and Head of Human Resources, overseeing payroll, insurance, and both government and private contracts. With a Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources from Cabrini University, I’m grateful to bring my education back home and help grow the family business we deeply cherish.
Alongside our construction business, I’ve managed rental properties for about 15 years. I enjoy the remodeling process and the relationships that come with property management, which led me to start my own rental portfolio eight years ago. I’m passionate about helping people navigate their real estate journey and believe local, “mom-and-pop” landlords play a vital role in keeping our communities strong.
Community service is at the heart of who I am. I am currently serving my sixth year on the Kent County Board of Adjustment, where I also serve as Vice Chair. In this role, we listen to property owners, review appeals, and ensure the public’s voice is heard. Some of our most notable cases have involved solar farm hearings and property revitalization efforts. I believe in smart growth—using what we already have, so long as development does not seriously impact neighboring properties.
I also serve as President of the Board of Directors for the Frederica Senior Center. This role has deepened my understanding of the challenges many seniors face and the powerful difference a strong community center can make. Too many seniors in our district experience real hardship, but they should never have to face their golden years alone. The Frederica Senior Center provides a safe place to enjoy meals, access vital services, and build meaningful connections. I’m incredibly proud of our dedicated staff and believe that with increased state support, we can help even more seniors. In partnership with the Food Bank of Delaware, we also operate an on-site food pantry that is open to anyone in need. If you or someone you know could use assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out. The food pantry is open Fridays from 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.
If elected, my priorities will be clear and focused on the people of our district:
Small Businesses – I’ve lived the struggle of rising taxes, skyrocketing insurance costs, and endless red tape. We need to cut unnecessary bureaucracy, connect business owners with real resources, and allow local businesses to grow and create good-paying, stable jobs right here at home.
Family Farms – Our farmers are being squeezed by rising costs and property taxes. I will fight to increase farmland preservation funding and raise awareness so future generations can continue these traditions rather than being forced to sell.
Seniors – Our seniors built this community. They deserve dignity, respect, and access to the services they’ve earned.
Education – Strong schools lead to a stronger workforce and brighter futures for our children. We must improve outcomes for students and families alike.
Healthcare – Families should not have to wait months for a doctor’s appointment or travel out of state for care. I will work tirelessly to attract and retain doctors, nurses, and healthcare professionals so Delaware families receive timely, quality care.
Public Safety- Public safety in Delaware means supporting our local police, fire companies, and EMS while strengthening the neighborhoods and small towns that make our state such a great place to live.
These priorities are not just policy positions—they are personal. The small businesses that sponsor Little League teams, the farm stands we grew up visiting, and the seniors who wave as you drive by are the heart of our community. When we support them, our local economy grows, jobs stay here, and Delaware remains the special place we’re proud to call home.
I’m running because I’ve lived the challenges our families face, and I know we can do better—together. I would be honored to earn your trust and represent you and your family in Dover.
