In 2010, he ran for state representative to succeed the incumbent, Jeff Davis Perry, who opted not to run for re-election in order to run for an open seat in Congress against Bill Keating. Hunt beat Democrat Lance Lambros and was sworn in as representative from the 5th Barnstable District on January 5, 2011. Hunt has been a member of the Joint Committee on Telecommunications, Utilities, and Energy (TU&E) since 2011.
