Could be the ignition switch failed. The electrical part commonly fails and is easily replaced.

All power, or all power to starter?
1st guess- voltage regulator- an easy swap but a little pricey- $40 or so.... |

Check the relay board in the engine compartment, check the relay under the passenger seat. Make sure you are getting power there when you turn the key. Make sure all your grounds are german virgins (Gootntight) and then turn the key and if you still dont have power, check some more stuff. I would bet it is an easy fix, its just tough to troubleshoot.
