Ward was elected unopposed to the House of Parliament in a May 1858 by-election in the Lyttelton electorate. The seat had been vacated by James FitzGerald, who resigned due to ill health. Ward was re-elected unopposed on 25 January 1861.

In the 1866 election, Ward contested the Avon electorate against Bishop (was it Edward Bishop?). They received 265 and 186 votes, respectively. In 1867, he was appointed agent in London for the Canterbury provincial government, and he thus resigned his seat in Parliament.
