He and Jenness were nominated at the party's convention in Cleveland, which was held in August 1971.[6] At the time of the election, he was twenty-one years old, making him ineligible to serve as vice president under the United States Constitution (also ineligible was Jenness, who was 31).[7][8][6] The ticket of Jenness and him received 52,799 votes.
In 1979, Pulley ran for mayor of Chicago as the SWP nominee.[3] He received 1.83% of the vote.[9]
In 1984, Pulley was the SWP nominee for Michigan's 1st congressional district, and received 0.4% of the vote. A central part of his platform was opposition to the privatization of Wayne County General Hospital.[5]
