She then ran in the 2000 Japanese general election in the third district of Fukuoka Prefecture, with the Democratic Party of Japan, but was defeated by Seiichi Ōta.[2]
Fujita was elected for the first time in the 2003 Japanese general election, in the 3rd district of Fukuoka, defeating Seiichi Ōta. She joined several committees, including the one focused on issues related to Health, Labour and Social Affairs.[2]
She did not retain her seat in the 2005 Japanese general election, but won the 2009 Japanese general election, allowing her to defeat Seiichi Ōta again. Fujita was then appointed head of the House of Representatives' Consumer and Health Affairs Committees in 2010.
