Campbell was the Alliance candidate for the Taranaki-King Country by-election of 1998, and claimed to have "played some small part in bringing about the closer working relationship between Labour and the Alliance as a result of that by-election."[2] He was a member of the Alliance, having been elected to Parliament as a list MP in the 1999 elections. At the 2002 elections Campbell moved up one place on the Alliance party list, to tenth position, however due to the party's split,[3] the Alliance's party vote fell 6.47 percentage points,[4][5] meaning it was not allocated any seats in Parliament and Campbell lost his seat.
Since leaving Parliament Campbell has worked as a Supervising Solicitor at Community Law Canterbury.[1]
