In 1833, he was a member of the Executive Council of Maine and from 1834 to 1838 he was a Land Agent for the state. In 1846, he was elected to the Maine State Senate and served as Senate President in 1847. He was re-elected in 1848 but resigned after unsuccessfully challenging incumbent Democrat John W. Dana his party's nomination for Governor. In 1849, Hodgdon was named Bank Commissioner and in 1853, he was offered the position of US consul in Rome by President Franklin Pierce, which he declined. In 1853, he left Maine for Dubuque, Iowa, where he became mayor in 1859.〔 ==References==
