Cunha previously served as a member of the Legislative Assembly of Alagoas for the centrist Brazilian Social Democracy Party, before running a bid for the senate, noted by a striking independence from his party's coalition with the infamous Alagoas politician and president Fernando Collor de Mello.

Despite being elected as a member of the PSDB, he ran an independent campaign.
At the beginning of the electoral race, he demonstrated dissatisfaction with the coalition made by his party with former president Fernando Collor for the dispute for state government and continued campaigning without associating his image with the party's majority ticket.
