He was unopposed in the November general election.

Baird is known for his knowledge of the state budget and his work on ethics and government reform.

As a legislator, he followed a no-gift rule, refusing to take even a cup of coffee from a lobbyist.

He worked to establish a cooling-off period before a legislator, constitutional officer, or state agency head could become a lobbyist.

In addition to serving as chairman of the Joint Budget Committee, Baird was a member of the House committees on Revenue & Taxation and State Agencies & Governmental Affairs.

Grant Hodges of Rogers was the successful Republican nominee to succeed Baird in House District 96.

2013

Prior to the 2013 legislative session, Baird was named one of the "Top 10 Legislators To Watch" by Talk Business.

In 2013, Baird announce his candidacy for state treasurer, an office formerly held by the Democrat Martha Shoffner, who stepped down in 2013 amid charges of corruption and was replaced by the temporary appointee, Charles W. Robinson.

"My primary focus as State Treasurer will be to restore trust to the office. I want the people of Arkansas to be able to look at the treasurer’s office and have confidence that we’re working on behalf of them to do what’s best for the state," said Baird in a statement of candidacy.

Baird earned the endorsement of the statewide Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, which said, "Duncan Baird is the obvious choice in this Republican primary", as well as the Northwest Arkansas Newspapers.

Conservative columnist Jason Tolbert endorsed Baird, saying, "In short, Baird is qualified, well-respected, understands state government, has the investment experience needed, and most importantly has the high ethical standards that inspire trust. He is clearly the man for such a time as this."
