 On January 13, 2020, Mincey was among twenty-three Republican lawmakers, known as the [[Louisiana Republican Fraud Squad|Fraud Squad]], who voted for the [[Moderate Republican]] [[Clay Schexnayder]] of Ascension Parish, whose election as House [[Speaker]] depended heavily on the votes of thirty-five Democratic lawmakers, along with two [[Independents]], and the Republican defectors.

 On October 14, 2023, Mincey challenged a fellow Republican, the conservative state Representative Valarie Hodges, for the District 13 seat in the state Senate vacated by the Moderate Republican [[J. Rogers Pope]]. Hodges won the seat with 65 percent of the ballots cast to Mincey's 35 percent.
