State Rep. Dick Spanbauer Will Not Seek Re-Election

State Rep. Dick Spanbauer cites broken system, 'extremism' on both sides in decision not to seek reelection.  (Oshkosh Northwestern, 1/24/2012)

Excerpt:   State Rep. Dick Spanbauer, R-Town of Algoma, decided not to seek a third term in the Assembly citing his lack of desire to continue serving in a system he said values political points more than the people of the state. 

“They’re more obsessed with politics than the real reason we’re elected: To serve the people,” Spanbauer said. “Madison is different. Politics is different. Today, compromise has gone out the window and I’m coming to that point where I don’t have the patience for it anymore.
