Originally governing as an independent, he later aligned himself with the Republican Party, angering Democrats and contributing to the size of the Democratic primary.

Senator Joseph Salazar-Portela was the initial Republican candidate, but withdrew from the race and was replaced by his running mate Chris Waugh.
