He was always elected by the constituency of Évora, as a member of the Unitary Democratic Coalition lists for that same constituency.[1] He was not re-elected in the 2022 legislative elections, given that the CDU lost the seat it had in Évora to the Social Democratic Party, for the first time since 1976.[2]
