Bebout secured the backing of former U.S. Senator Alan Kooi Simpson of Cody, who issued strong attacks on Hunkins during the primary campaign. Bebout defeated the more conservative Hunkins, 44,417 (49 percent) to 25,363 (28 percent). Two other candidates split the remaining 23 percent of the ballots. Bebout was then narrowly defeated in the general election by the Democratic former United States Attorney David Duane "Dave" Freudenthal.
