In 1958 he became the mayor elected by Seuzach and held this post until 1971 held. At the same time, he represented his party in the Zurich Cantonal Council from 1959 to 1971 . After the BGB merged with the democratic parties of the cantons of Glarus and Graubünden in 1971 and founded the Swiss People's Party (SVP), Stuckis was elected to the Zurich government council , of which he was a member until his resignation in 1991.
