Biography
In spring 2012, Spencer announced he would challenge U.S. Rep. Ann Marie Buerkle (R-Onondaga Hill) in the Republican primary on June 26, 2012. He resides in Parish, N.Y., which is outside of the newly drawn 24th district. Federal election law does not require a candidate to live in the district he or she represents. But he failed to submit the required petition signatures to appear on the primary ballot and Buerkle was uncontested on the June 26, 2012, primary.
