Wanggard also taught at Gateway Technical College.
Wanggaard worked for the Racine Police Department from 1972 to 2001 as an investigator.
He and his wife have two children.
This was the 2nd time that a senator serving in the 21st district had been successfully recalled, the first being George Petak in 1996.
Wanggaard was elected to the Racine County Board of Supervisors in 2002, a seat he held until he joined the State Senate in 2011.
In 2006, Wanggaard ran for the 62nd Wisconsin Assembly district but was defeated by future Racine Mayor Cory Mason.
He was previously elected to the same office in 2010, but was removed by recall election in June 2012.
In 2010, Wanggaard ran again for state legislative office, this time challenging incumbent Democrat John Lehman in the 21st senate district.
This time Wanggaard was successful, winning the seat as part of the 2010 Republican wave election which saw Republicans flip 721 state legislative seats around the country.
Shortly after the 2010 election, the new unified Republican government attempted to pass a controversial budget restructuring.
Wanggaard was one of the 16 senators who faced recall elections, and was challenged by his defeated 2010 rival, former-senator John Lehman.
The bill was characterized as an assault on unions and public education, and led to senate recall elections in 2011 and 2012, as well as a recall election for the Governor, Scott Walker.
Lehman defeated Wanggaard in the recall election held on June 5, 2012.
After the 21st was redrawn into a safe Republican district, Lehman chose not to run for re-election in 2014, opting instead to seek the Democratic nomination for Lieutenant Governor of Wisconsin.

As of 2018, Wanggaard is the Wisconsin Senate Majority Caucus Chair.
