Zinck represented the riding of Dartmouth North as an MLA from 2006 to 2010 as a member of the NDP before serving as an Independent MLA until 2013 after he was suspended by the NDP over persistent issues with his expenses.
He later resigned his seat after he pleaded guilty to charges of fraud over $5,000 and breach of trust for accepting approximately $9,000 from the Speaker’s Office to cover constituency expenses in 2008 and 2009, even though he didn’t pay those he owed money.
