==Career==
Wagner is from Spring Garden Township in York County, Pennsylvania. He owns a waste management business, called Penn Waste, and a trucking company, called KBS Trucking.〔 A lifelong member of the Republican Party, Wagner spent what he called "a significant amount" of his money to support "pro-business" candidates in the 2010 elections for Governor and Lieutenant Governor of Pennsylvania, the United States Senator, and United States Representative from .
Mike Waugh, who represented the 28th district in the Pennsylvania Senate, announced he would not run for reelection in the November 2014 elections. Wagner declared his candidacy for the seat. Waugh then resigned in January 2014, and a special election was called to fill the remainder of his term, with the date set for March 18. When Ron Miller, an incumbent member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, declared his intentions to run for the seat, Wagner charged the Republican Party with cronyism. Wagner withdrew his name from consideration, but remained a candidate for the regularly scheduled primary election in May 2014. The York County Republicans selected Miller as their nominee, and Wagner chose to run in the special election as a write-in candidate against Miller and Linda Small, the Democratic Party nominee.
Wagner criticized Senate Republicans for supporting Miller, and the Senate Republicans aired television commercials attacking Wagner. In the election, Wagner received 10,595 votes (47.7%), while Miller received 5,920 votes (26.6%) and Small received 5,704 votes (25.7%). Turnout was less than 14% of all registered voters in the district. Wagner became the first write-in candidate to win election to the Pennsylvania Senate.
