Carroll was elected to Louth County Council for Drogheda East at the local elections in June 2009. He succeeded Tony Kett on the Administrative Panel on 26 November 2009 after Kett's death. This was done without a by-election, as he was the only nominated candidate.

Carroll unsuccessfully contested the 2011 general election for the Louth constituency achieving only 8.2% of the vote, and lost his seat in the 2011 Seanad election.
