Whakaotihia te rerenga e whai ake nei: Kua mahi a Babcock hei kaitiaki rohe me te tiamana rohe o te GOP o Alaska (AKGOP). I noho hoki ia hei Tumuaki Tuarua mo te kawanatanga, a, i mahi poto ano ia hei Tumuaki mo te roopu i te tau 2000. I te tau 2016, ka rere ano ia mo tenei tari. I te huihuinga o te Rōpū Reipa o Alaska i Fairbanks i te Paenga-whāwhā 28-30 2016, i whakataetae a Babcock ki te roia whakawa a Fairbanks a Ann Brown hei whai i a Peter Goldberg. I wikitoria a Babcock i te pōtitanga, ā, i riro hoki ia hei māngai mō te
National Republican Convention i Cleveland i te raumati o te tau 2016.
