Wins for Milwaukee incumbents on Tuesday. Both Mayor Tom Barrett and Milwaukee County Exec Chris Abele easily brushed off their challengers. Seventy-percent of voters re-elected Barrett to a fourth term as he defeated Alderman Bob Donovan.
Abele won a second term by defeating state Senator Chris Larson by a 66-to-44 percent margin – a race where Abele spent more than $4-million of his own money.
