He then served two terms in the Herkimer County Legislature, where he was elected Majority Leader in 1993.[2]

He was first elected to represent 113th Assembly District in 1995. Due to redistricting, he was elected to the new 117th Assembly District in 2002.[2] Butler won the November 2008 general election with 71 percent of the vote[3][4] and ran uncontested in the November 2010 general election.[5][6] He did not seek reelection in 2018.
