He was first elected to the 95th Congress on November 2, 1976, originally as a Democrat from the 3rd Congressional District. The district took in the entire northwestern part of the state, but most of its vote was cast in its share of Phoenix and its fast-growing suburbs. Despite his Democratic affiliation, he considered himself a "Pinto," or rural, Democrat and his voting record was very conservative. He voted for Ronald Reagan's tax cuts in 1981. Shortly after that vote, he announced he would become a Republican when Congress reconvened in January 1982. Regardless of his party affiliation, he never faced serious competition at the ballot box.
