Hudson stood in the 2011 election, but his rank of 73rd on National's party list meant he was not elected to Parliament. In 2014 election the National Party selected him to contest Ōhāriu against incumbent Peter Dunne of the United Future Party.[2] While unsuccessful in his electorate, he was ranked 39th on National's 2014 party list, enough to become a list MP.[3]

At the 2020 election Hudson lost Ōhāriu by nearly 12,000 votes, and was not placed high enough on National's list to return to Parliament as a list MP.[4][5]
