A city councilman and then mayor of Palmdale, Chimbole won election to the California State Assembly in 1974 by defeating Republican Kenneth Hall, then chief deputy director of the California Department of Finance.

From 1996 to 2000 Chimbole was a member of the Antelope Valley Hospital District Board.
