Biographical NoteReturn to Top

After serving as King County Prosecuting Attorney until 1978, Bayley returned to private practice in Seattle and in 1982 became Senior Vice President for Law and Corporate Affairs at Burlington Northern Railroad. In 1985 he became President and CEO of its real estate subsidiary, Glacier Park Company. A 1991 corporate decision of Burlington Resources to liquidate all assets of Glacier Park Company thrust Bayley into proposals for sales of the firm's properties not used for railroad operations. This divestiture was concluded in 1992, and Bayley then became involved in other investment and consulting ventures.

Bayley supported various attorneys for judicial appointments and worked actively for Republican candidates Rick White (for Congress, 1994), Dale Foreman (for Governor, 1996), and John Carlson (for Governor, 2000) as well as for others.

In 1998 he entered the primary race for U.S. Senate, planning to defeat state legislator Linda Smith and, subsequently, incumbent Patty Murray. Smith rallied her volunteers and other supporters and defeated Bayley in the primary election.
