In 1964, he succeeded Rufus D. Hayes as insurance commissioner. Hayes declined to seek a second elected term in the position. Among the losing candidates were State Representative Jack M. Dyer of [[Baton Rouge]] and state Senator [[Speedy Long]] of LaSalle Parish, the choice of [[John J. McKeithen]], the successful gubernatorial candidate that year. Speedy Long went on to serve in the [[United States House of Representatives]]. The Long-Guglielmo rivalry reflected the split in the Long ranks which had surfaced in the first primary held in December 1963. Guglielmo carried the backing of defeated gubernatorial candidates [[Shelby M. Jackson]], [[Robert F. Kennon]], Claude Kirkpatrick (1917-1997), and Gillis William Long (1923-1985).<ref>''Minden Press,'' November 4, 1963, p. 12.</ref>​
