Baldoví served as a local councillor for his hometown of Sueca for 14 years. He served as Mayor for the 2007 to 2011 term.[2] He resigned from the council in January 2014, citing the difficulty of serving as a local and national politician simultaneously.[3]
During his time in Congress, Baldoví attracted attention after removing his shirt and tie to reveal a t-shirt protesting against bankers.[4] He called for reforms to the electoral system,[5] a Freedom of information act[6] and conducted experiments in direct democracy.[6]
